Author here. One practical reason to switch to Notable from Joplin is that notes in Notable are just plain files on disk, and that's extremely powerful. In Joplin instead you can only open notes one by one in the default app, the difference is that Joplin essentially copies the note out of its database, opens that in the external editor, and then synchronizes its changes back with the database. In Notable the files on disk _are_ the database.

In practice this means that you should be getting better startup times with Joplin's approach, but anything that has to do with manipulating a lot of notes with an external tool is trivial in Notable, but you can't really do it with Joplin.

Plus each note in Notable contains its own metadata in the YAML frontmatter section of the note. Last time I checked Joplin just doesn't expose this at all.

I don't know enough about QOwnNotes to compare it in the same level of detail.

If you want to give Notable another spin you should probably try one of the alphas of v1.9: https://github.com/notable/notable-experimental/releases the app changed quite significantly. For one now all shortcuts are customizable like they are in VSCode, and theming too is pretty much like in VSCode, in fact I ported all themes from VSCode to Notable, they are installable via the "Theme: Install..." command in the command palette.
Was just in Portland last weekend. Other than the all the masks, and the awesome new outdoor dining where they shut down streets for restaurant patrons, it's identical to how it was the last time I was there in November.

These are authoritarian scare tactics to make the protestors stop protesting police violence, so that they can go back to the violent status quo and maintain the blue wall of silence. The outcry from the pro-militants about public property damage is a day late and a dollar short: the point of the protests is about the murder of innocent blacks by out of control police. Murder >> Vandalism.

Want the protests to stop? Address police brutality, don't escalate with random acts of surreal violence.
I've said too much about this subject in the past [1], but my litmus test for "localized" programming languages is a Korean support (both because I speak it natively and because it is very much different from most Indo-European languages). It spectacularly fails. At the very least it is evident that Citrine only ever cares about languages with prepositions (e.g. `x on: 'greet:' do: { ... }`).

> Clinton spent $1.2B in 2016 and Trump spent $680B. These are formidable sums for non-establishment parties.

I was going to write a comment about how shocked I was that Trump outspending Clinton by a factor of 500 didn't see any media coverage, but it looks like that's supposed to be 680M.
Yes - it’s the fact that the race for the presidency is a winner-takes-all game. When Clinton lost, she didn’t get a diminished, minority, but still proportional say in the running of the government - she was completely out and Trump got everything.

The US system wasn’t engineered with the possibility of coalitions and compromise governments in mind (at least not in the Executive).
On the subject of horticulture, there are still a great many amazing plants that aren't well understood and which resist cultivation. In addition it seems some fundamentally accepted default processes in the horticultural industry are ripe for review - for example, I read a paper recently which threw the conventional root hormone application wisdom for cuttings out the window: in that study it was found application atop a cutting (in the species covered) was superior to application below a cutting as conventionally taught. If things this fundamental are up for discussion, it would seem clear that we are really only at the relative tip of the iceberg in our understanding of biological systems and horticultural practice.

I suspect advancements in the next few years in areas like: new high yield crop combinations, improved robotic tilling/sewing/fertilizing/weeding/harvesting mechanisms, increased understanding of a broader variety of species seed germination requirements, combined horticulture/mycoculture/bryoculture strategies, autonomous tissue culture, autonomous offshore aquaculture and harvesting, etc. Robotics really should be a huge enabler here.

I already have a robotics factory in China and the personal and commercial motivation to build solutions in this space and am actively studying horticulture. Email me if you'd like to collaborate, have agricultural know-how and/or land and the medium to long term interest to collaborate, fellow startups welcome. Basically I am constrained by available land and time, don't believe in the long term economics of indoor/heavily synthetic conditions, and believe we are fundamentally at a crossroads for more sustainable, higher density agricultural practices enabled by new, more precise technology and more holistic conceptions of agricultural systems.

I genuinely can’t tell if you’re making a bad argument, or if you still don’t get it.
I think you probably agree with the original commenter that school shootings have killed more than the coronavirus (within the age group). They are saying, if people don't really care about the former, it's not surprising they don't care about the latter, which has killed fewer people. Are you really disagreeing with what they said or just the tone?
Easier said than done. It’s increasingly difficult to find a “dumb” TV these days. Almost all have smart functionality.

Hey!

1. It surfaces hidden submenu items.

This will immediately give you access to all the navigational links that you wouldn't get access to.

2. It harmonizes tabbing experience visually.

Sites have made a mess of focus indicators, most removing them. This extension will make the active selection more visible.

3. It surfaces the associated link easier.

4. In the near future it will support all HTML elements.

You'll be able to search for the inputs and select the one you choose.

5. It pulls in history/favorite/open tabs/common sites to pull your browsing context into the current tab.

6. It's a more natural flow.

To select a link and follow it with chrome you need to:
1.CMD/CTRL + F
2. Search for link
3. ESC to select the element (esc is a weird key here)
4. Enter

Instead
1.CMD/CTRL + F
2. Search for link
3. TAB to select the element
4. Enter

7. You can see the search results in the result set all at once even if they are far apart on the page.

This happens everywhere... some platforms became so complicated to do initial setup with that Docker became a necessity instead of an install script.

It now takes me weeks to setup a fresh machine to do local dev on. I guess I should make a docker image of my dev box.

cd devbox

...would be nice, now that I think about it.
You broke it, you bought it Samsung. Full refund. Pick up the device at your expense or provide disposal costs as well.

This is anecdotal based on my experience in both the Bay Area and SLC, but the pay differential is extreme at the top end, and practically nonexistent in the middle bands. That is to say, the kind of developer who might be able to command a $400K+ salary in the Bay Area may be able to get $200K in Utah. But if you qualify for the kind of position that pays $150-180K in the Bay Area, maybe at a startup with equity, you'd get about the same in Utah, maybe a little less. But you can buy a really nice house in Utah for $500K.
Haha that random speed degredation happened to me even in Windows. Turned out to be a bug in the T470 firmware that throttled the cores down to a couple of hundred Mhz when on battery. I could literally watch the windows being drawn. Not sure if this was what happened for him, probably not as he wrote that years before the T470 was released, but I'm just saying it's not necessarily Linux related.

But overall I've had no such issues with Linux during the last years. I use all 3 desktop platforms a lot, and my favourite was Mac, but due to Apple's constant "dumbing down" (both the OS and hardware) to appeal to the iPhone/iPad userbase it meets my needs as a power users less and less.
Well, let me ask you this: why not stop the computer when a program encounters a bug? Why not the whole cluster? Theoretically, an attempt to write to a null pointer could happen because you have corrupted a database or file and the entire system is now in an unreliable state.

The answer is that just as a process has some degree of isolation from other processes on the same system, and from the kernel, similarly components of a process can be well enough isolated that only the specific component that encountered the bug needs to be stopped. This is never 100% safe, but how safe it is depends greatly on the technology and architecture.
Yeah, they keep proposing things they can't follow through, that's quite weird.

The UE relations are a particular sore spot, which they keep dancing around, but no one wants to address directly.
It’s peak HN that you’re getting downvoted for explaining your own comment.
It seems like we have different perceptions on all counts, especially that this observation is just from certain supporters of a particular ideology. Interestingly, in my view, this is the one thing that liberals and conservatives can actually agree on.
I think for your software product, you may have underestimated the value of GitHub.io domain. Your post makde it sound like it went from one custom self owned domain to another, that's not the case at all. I would move it back to github.io, and build your other domain over time until they are 1&2 in results (or there abouts)
> might have come from a lucky admixture of Neanderthral and Denisovan genes

You probably didn't mean to step in a minefield here, but not all human populations have Neanderthal genes. The prevailing thesis is that mostly complete (minus fiddling like lactose tolerance and pigmentation) modern humans were involved in the out-of-Africa migration ~60k-100k years ago.
> Where can Stripe earn reasonable amounts of short-term interest without risk to the principal?

If investors had the answer to that question, all of wall street would be out of a job.

There's always risk. It's just a question of whether or not offering that service brings in enough extra customers (or retains customers who may otherwise leave) to reasonably offset the risk.
There's no point in further engaging with you if that's your take on the presidential responses to 2009 H1N1 versus 2020 SARS-CoV-2.

The presidents could not differ more in:

- lead time between inauguration and first epidemic reaching the USA (6 weeks versus 3 years)
- seriousness with which the presidential transition team took pandemic response
- the authority given to pandemic response (Obama made NSC responsible while Trump made HHS responsible)
- speed and intensity of initial response once the outbreak was identified
- empowerment medical professionals
- use of Defense Production Act
- treatment of WHO, CDC, and FDA as institutions
There are many labs, globally, in this race. The molecular ways to create the diversity of approaches are well known.
Russia has many smart people, but they lack the latest fabrication tools for assembling large volumes of some vaccines. They can make chicken egg and insect cell cultivated vaccines in volume if they identify a working vaccine candidate that can be made that way. They may face volume production problems in making volumes of fabricated antigens??, however, if a candidate is found, western companies can partner and make the volume.
The degree of testing to large size phase 3 approvals is costly and time consuming. Russia may choose to jump the regulatory queue and make a volume released candidate with a lower degree of approval. Countries will choose to accept/deny release on a country by country basis.
Thus, I feel Russia has a shot at success if they are able to field a good vaccine. Politics might deny access to some countries, but any well documented release can function as a de-facto phase 3 trial if it works and has no side effects/deaths etc.
The USA has a tendency to deprecate Russia - political crap - Russia has smart people and a good education system, but is deficient in many facilities in depth.
> but without the downsides of the costly C++ memory deallocation on stack unwinding.

I.e. I don’t care about restoring the program to a known state when handling an error (memory deallocation is just one case of processing unwind blocks; locks need releasing,my file handles returned to kernel etc). This really only makes sense when your error “handling” is merely printing a user friendly error message and exiting.
The counterexample of other countries is not sufficient to rule it out as a causal factor, that's just faulty logic.

> The only major use case for cycles that I can think of is self-hosting compilers.

Yup. In the build system for a self-hosting compiler I wrote I solved it using an optional target. If the compiler is present, generate the boot code using it, else download the boot code from a site on the internet, do md5sum checking and bootstrap from that. In a good build system, modeling this is a piece of cake.
But why was she unpopular? It's because she's losing ground to the right: https://www.thelocal.de/20200210/akk-the-rise-and-fall-of-me...

> But AKK had to fend off an unexpectedly strong challenge from the ambitious Friedrich Merz, who is favoured by the CDU's most conservative wing.

> AKK initially sought to carve out her own profile in a party thirsty for change after years of Merkel's moderate course in a loveless coalition with the centre-left Social Democrats.

> She notably championed a tougher stance on asylum seekers and floated the idea of reintroducing compulsory military service. She also spoke out against gay marriage.

> AKK was badly weakened by a string of bruising election results, particularly in eastern Germany's former communist states, where the CDU bled support to the anti-immigrant AfD.

All that just reinforces my point about German politics becoming more right-wing: "The new leader of the CDU is significantly further right than Merkel: she opposes abortion and gay marriage, and declared the 2015 acceptance of refugees as 'a mistake' that they’ve 'learnt from and won’t repeat.'"

People aren't leaving CDU for SDP. They're going to AfD. AKK walked back Merkel's acceptance of refugees, but the leading contenders to replace AKK look like they'll be even more right-wing. So I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with me about?

As someone who knows nothing about stocks: why aren't they just auctioned off?

Start by selling the highest bidder the amount of stock they bid for, then continue with the next-highest bidder until the supply is depleted. Wouldn't that guarantee the best value for the company?
Even if the universe is simulated, it’s likely that a tree falling in the woods does have some minuscule causal link with humans that would require the simulation to simulate not just the tree falling but also all resulting effects according to the physical laws.
Singapore presents itself as "very diverse" but people will regularly be surprised if you have a western appearance and speak with the same accent as everybody else in the city.

It's not really comparable to the US (or the UK or commonwealth countries or much of Europe) in that way.
I suspect that’s more cultural than political. The UK uses coalition governments, as is typical for a parliamentary democracy, and it doesn’t seem to have the same “we have decided” spirit.

There are two internal registers (IND and OPR) that aren't visible to the programmer. See the block diagram at the bottom of the post. The flags are in the ALU, not in the register file.
Nope, you are still not making sense. Just look at the "Facebook remotely disables all apps" issue. Both times it was issues deserializing - the deserialization wasn't unsafe or outright crashing, it was simply the SDK wasn't prepared to deal with the data it got.

Has the open source branch of the project stopped entirely or is it more of the "open source core" approach used by Sidekiq and others?

How do you think about the growth/monetization trade-offs?
Exactly. We should be encouraging policies that flush out value-less companies. The financial markets can't be the winners of capitalism. The consumers have to be the winners of capitalism and the only way you do that is by finding ways to make money change hands more rapidly and making markets more perfectly competitive.

The mic dropper here is that environment influences behavior but so do genetics. BOTH are factors. The problem with society and you is that you choose to ignore the genetic factor and only choose to examine the environmental factor because it fits with your social construct of how the world should be.

Science and reality exist separate to your ethical constructs, and there is scientific evidence that proves it.

You view the world as a two sided hypothesis. Either nature or nurture with nature being racist so nurture is better. But you are aware that this isn't true on some level. You know that genetics influences differences in behavior between men and women so much so that men and women across the globe can be fit into certain behavioral stereotypes that are sexist to talk about but at the same time exist as a permanent part of the fabric of reality. Anecdotally it is literally impossible to ignore the masculine behavioral traits of a trans woman because the genetics influencing behavior are so prevalent.

That's not evidence however. Let's not get into that because anecdotal arguments can become circular: When I present an example and you rewrite reality so that it fits your ethical world view or vice versa. Let us consider scientific studies. Is behavior caused nature or nurture or both? Obviously both, but let us see what happens when we control the nature part by only looking at twins or triplets separated at birth. What are the behavioral differences?:

https://science.howstuffworks.com/life/genetic/5-true-storie...

I have long discovered that there's no such thing as a "mic dropper" the extent that humans will go to bend the evidence and examine improbable possibilities to maintain their ethical and moral world view is extensive. A logical argument will not convert a christian to an atheist and it will not change you. What follows from you, if you read this, is a long and involved break down to discredit my evidence a reexamination of the context from biased angles until you use the logic to construct a universe that fits the world how you see it rather than the world as it truly is.

The bottom line is: genetics made your brain therefore it influences your brain and in turn, your behavior. If such genetic differences exist between twins and between sexes then it must exist between race.

And keep in mind... never ever did I say environment is not a major influence for behavior. I never said otherwise i am only saying that to ignore genetics and say that genetics do not influence race is scientific folly and irrationality.

Machine guns are actually quite rare in the US. All new machine guns were banned for civilian ownership in 1983, meaning that if you want to get one it has to be one of a small number of pre-1983 registered examples. They also come with some pretty intense storage, transit, and transfer requirements that wouldn’t surprise most Europeans. The end result is that legal machine guns are a rare collectors item, with examples starting at about $5,000 for a low quality sub-machine gun, with automatic rifles costing more than $20,0000.

I’d actually argue that the regulation of machine guns, suppressors, and short barreled rifles has been extremely effective, as it’s extremely rare to hear about any of these items being used criminally.
Yep. The problem I really want to solve is, go to the shell init file where $LESS or $MANPATH or whatever is defined.
Swamp coolers actually reduce the temperature of the air. At the expense of increasing humidity. Generally for residential units that's okay since they work best in places where the weather is both hot and low humidity. Humidification is seen as mostly an advantage.
