> My question: an oft repeated refrain, when Marx is touted as a reasonable alternative, is that any time anyone tried his ideas out, it was a total disaster (Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Chavez).

A couple things. Chavez is of a different category from the other three just on the amount of death under the other regimes. The question of the results of socialism and capitalism is complex. It's worth reading both historical and economically focused works to get a more nuanced view than the one that you've laid out. For a few suggestions:

On historical critiques of the US-centric perspective:

The Jakarta Method, Vincent Bevins

The Darker Nations, Vijay Prashad

A People's History of the United States, Howard Zinn

Economic works:

Competing Economic Theories, Richard Wolff

Seventeen Contradictions and the End of Capitalism, David Harvey

There are more authors (Kliman, Moseley, Shaikh, etc.), but these two would be a good start.

These are works with particular perspectives and should be read as such. If you want competing ideological works, read a standard history book and Hayek, Mises, Friedman, etc.

Literally everything you say is a straw man, you should really stop doing that.
Japan has some really impressive universities and, as a rich country, is able to nurture all sorts of talent.

The Japanese ruling party is a bunch of old people from a few traditional families mixed with some new faces.

It’s very unfortunate how little these two worlds (talented people and politicians) collide.
I agree with this goal, but I don't see systemic exclusion in this article because the article didn't bother to do any investigation to understand where these policies came from. I keep reiterating this, but debt is an incredibly dangerous financial tool and you have to take extra care in differentiating someone being denied a loan because the objective risk profile is high vs being denied a loan because the bank is following racist policies.
Then don't go to a restaurant or bar. Down here in Texas we opened in May and left it up to the individual to make the health choice. I'm active and going to the gym daily and bars during the weekend, but I have friends who won't go outside and haven't dined in a restaurant since March.

I'm James, and I've been developing software for the financial services/trading for the past 3 years. I'm looking for backend .NET work, but I've delivered successfully delivered full-stack projects across payments processing, market data processing and post-trade processing. I'm also open to learning new tech stacks.
At least in AWS tunneling through SSH suddenly makes it not cheap anymore - I have currently gone with the whitelisted IP list for personal projects.
FWIW, the 6 was released September 2014. The 6 alongside the 5s (released a year prior in September 2013) are still receiving patches for iOS 12, the most recent being July 15th.

For that reason I think it's more than fine to continue selling it discounted until 2018, it's not like they were marketing it as flagship.

Additionally the 6s from Sept 2015 is receiving iOS 14.
Totally agree, in the main. Looking back it's very weird and un-Apple-like that iPod launched without iTMS, although taking their time held them in good stead with the App Store and simultaneously launching new hardware alongside a marketplace seems to have held them back with iPad/iBooks and the watch + its anaemic store.

I quibble one point you made (sorry -- former employees sometimes turn into nitpicking apologists):

> cmdrtaco was right about the extant iPod he was actually criticizing. It was lame and that iPod never became popular.

You're right that this iPod never became as popular as we understand the iPod to have been looking back from 2020, but the implication is that it was held back because of the assessment cmdrtaco made of it:

> No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.

Clearly it had no WiFi and a lower capacity than a Nomad, but that would continue to be the case for many years, right up to peak iPod in 2008 when Apple introduced the first iPod with WiFi (iPod Touch 1G). (Apple was never interested in competing on capacity -- a feature -- and actively sought to reframe marketing towards _benefits_, like how many songs or photos the capacity enabled you to hold in your pocket.)

So the absence of WiFi and lower capacity than Creative's lineup did not appear to be limiting factors in the iPod's success. I think they made it lame to cmdrtaco, but each subsequent iPod for the better part of a decade 'suffered' from the same lameness, and did so well that Amazon had precisely two sections for MP3 players for many years: "iPod" and "Non-iPod Music players"!

I believe that the tipping point for iPod came alongside several things: the final refinement to the interaction model (scroll wheel => touch wheel -- the first device is identifiably an iPod but almost ashamedly so, with buttons around the edge of the wheel which ruin the fascia), the miniaturisation of the device (and in particular the ruthless Jobsian cannibalisation of the Mini with the Nano), and the vacuum of competition around iTMS from its launch through 2006 or so.
That's pretty disgusting and vulgar. Let's not.
They can probably do it once or twice in a given year without having to move into the next level. If a company is particularly flexible, you can probably do it annually without much pain.

It's very difficult to wear an N95; it's really constrictive and uncomformtable. You can't expect civilians to wear N95 masks all the time and you need to weigh the comfort of a mask against its effectiveness.
I suppose charitable interpretations are just not an option, then?

Long links in the middle of sentences or paragraphs are annoying. Since HN doesn't allow hyperlinking, having a list of links at the bottom is the least disruptive option.
If you were building a themeable website, then you'd not be using bg:white; instead you'd use something like bg:main or something similar with a semantic meaning. This kind of customization is one of Tailwind's core workflow.

Interesting. I think because "no code" doesn't actually empower people.

Seems paradoxical but it's not. Belief empowers, without that you think, I might break it, and that will be terrible. You can't break a spreadsheet.
About two years UC Berkeley was forced to take down most of their university lecture videos which were available freely and publicly due to some regulation around closed captioning availability. Presumably the cost to providing the closed captioning was considered too high. I wonder if some software and/or service provider could help get those videos back up.
I already fixed this :) Sorry for mistake - I’m native polish speaker, english is my second language
I think you mean the chez backend? Chicken is a different scheme implementation.
The English idiom is precisely "throwing out the baby with the bath water." So, as they say, you "hit the nail on the head."
Not really. If it's sold it's in the hands of god knows how many parties. If it's only used for targeting, it's still with one party. Maybe you find any sort of monetization of data icky, but the latter is definitely more preferable to the former.

I don't think that forces their removal either. It just happens to help the compiler enough that it can remove them automatically most of the time.

As far as I know the only way to guarantee that bounds checks are not used in a block of code is to use `unsafe`.
This is starting to strain credulity. It says "mixed", not "evenly mixed" or anything to imply even-ness of true/false.

The NEXT 2 PARAGRAPHS say, in simple language, what part is true and which is not.
Nope, they advocate for "control", with them in charge, of course.
Do you think, from a large company's point of view, being "on that hot seat" is not worth the potential profit of a successful social platform? From what I can see, these company's have taken very little actual damage from that controversy. The moral complaints do little to their bottom line, and government talks tough but does nothing. Pragmatically, I think it seems like owning one of these platforms has more pros than cons.
I disagree with “no choice but to pay”, so long as the bribery is illegal and the relevant legislation not entirely hollow.

You may be able to clearly document the attempted bribery, and report it to the relevant authority—which may be a central agency of some form, or may be just going up the chain within the same organisation. Success will vary by country, authority and magnitude of offence. But even threatening to do this (politely) normally achieves the desired result, though it does nothing to actually uproot the corruption.

Alternatively, just indicate clearly that you’re not willing to play along with this illegal behaviour.

The zero rupee note (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_rupee_note) is a fairly successful example of doing this, and bear in mind that India corruption problem is much larger than any western country’s—although it’s illegal, it’s still par for the course in a great many areas. Yet standing up to this bribery is quite possible if only you have any inclination to do so.

I am currently in India, residing with another Australian who has lived in India for forty-odd years and operated business locally, and bribes were solicited from time to time, but he would not play ball, typically by either pretend nothing had happened (that is, ignoring any “hints” that you could pay for such-and-such) or by actively declining. Flunkies that try to take bribes personally are generally quite ready to backtrack once they see which way the wind is blowing (they could get in trouble with their boss), and more institutional bribery can generally be waited out, at the least. Even if it’s occasionally a long wait (like, months instead of days, or years instead of weeks).

A large part of the fight on these sorts of issues is changing cultural norms. Consider seatbelts over time in Australia (and much of the world): fifty years ago seatbelts were uncommon, but legislation was paired with a big marketing push to normalise wearing seatbelts had the effect that before terribly long society would look down with severe displeasure on anyone that didn’t wear a seatbelt while driving, so that now most people (well over 99% of the driving population, at a guess) wouldn’t dream of driving without wearing a seatbelt. The same is possible here, and will be far easier than selling ice to proverbial eskimos, because it’s easy to take the moral high ground in advertising (and moral high ground is almost as powerful as safety and “think of the children”): we will not parley with criminals.
'Little brain' or cerebellum not so little after all
In the first link you provided, PG put two photos: one of the NYT article and one of his HN post. The NYT article yes, condensed his lengthy post into one sentence, which will almost always be incomplete, but they also linked that quote to what I assume was the HN post. I guess it seems to me that PG is upset they didn't fully encapsulate his ideas, and I'd probably be frustrated as well. But is that the role of a journalist? And is it even possible to condense all of someone else's material and communicate it to another audience without losing information?

Maybe it's just me, but I use journalists as a stepping stone for learning more about a topic. I see them writing summaries (sometimes inaccurate) of things that happen in the world and then if I'm curious, I try to dig deeper into the primary sources to learn more.

I'd imagine almost every primary source believes journalists get the story wrong now and then, as the journalist doesn't say it the way they would say it. But I marvel in today's world, where I have such quick access to priamry sources to learn more.

How old is your building? New construction is so weather sealed and lacks fresh air leaks to meet air quality standards. Pretty sure whatever standard to get a green rating on a building requires outside air to be mixed in and due to efficiency requirements there has to be heat exchanger.

It's obvious to anyone with exposure to software that the whole industry is 25 years behind in version control. It exists in large companies, but as a JIRA or SAP like system, usually with engineers fighting for the right to work with local files. It does not exist as standard industry practice that everyone follows.

I'm sure many people on HN have experience meeting a one-person self-taught software team in a small company that developed their own version control system called "copying folders". In mechanical CAD, half of the industry is at that level, but it's even worse because your shard libraries may be updated irreversibly and without notification when you don't intend, or not updated when you intend, depending on such factors as the order in which you loaded your projects.

I was sad enough that GrabCAD was purchased by Stratasys, but at least it's plausible that it exists for a while. I didn't know OnShape was purchased by PTC. I was also really hopeful and play around with it about once a year. It's always missing something I need, but was getting close, and some of the features they add are really innovative. They are also honest about what features are missing.

On the other hand, I still have a soft spot for Pro-E since it was my first MCAD package and to this day miss some of its parametric features (but certainly not its interface).
