> Police used to be very popular/trustworthy (in the public imagination) until recently.

The people who are most consistently and vividly at the receiving end of the untrustworthiness of police (whether racial minorities or otherwise) tend to be politically and socially marginalized, as historically has been support for their interests. For the less marginalized, if they were in the receiving end of police injustice, it was usually at least masked in a more convincing veil of plausible deniability.

But those people who get the worst of it haven't seen police as trustworthy for, well, as long as there have been police. For the simple reason that police have never been, even in a simulated way, trustworthy for them.

Bumble was refreshingly better than Tinder in about 2014-2018 or so. Making it so the woman has to write first solved a lot of dating app problems:

- Women getting overwhelmed by too many messages and fleeing the app

- Men being able to determine which of their matches are actually interested vs. not. It's so tiring to send dozens of messages and not get a response. It's a really nice signal when a women actually writes you first.

But now, Hinge is the champion. The prompts, the scrolling vs. swiping. Combining messaging with swiping is really smart. You're able to add a little touch to your match request but you also don't have to see the failed ones (the ones who didn't write you back).

Hinge's redesign worked out quite well. https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/9/18297278/hinge-designed-to...
Good guess! One has to look at the actual cost of anywhere you go, which will take into account any financial aid. Regardless, that does become part of figuring out if you're getting your money's worth out of your education.
I find this argument weird. JS doesn't have Public Class fields yet [1] (stage 3), hence any TS or JS code making use of such concept will differ.

Similarly, as reliance of types in JS is not guaranteed, as it may in TS, will produce code with different assumptions too.

So while you may "easily" go from (1) JS => TS, it may be much harder going from (2) TS => JS, as in (1) you're preserving all information and in (2) you're losing information.

My point being, TS !== JS.

Quoting the recent [1] on Tesla's performance on Monday:

> Today alone, Tesla’s market cap soared by $64 billion in eight hours, including after hours. That’s $8 billion in “value created” per hour.

>In the second quarter, Tesla’s total revenues were $6 billion, down by 5.8% from Q2 last year. Today, its value rose by $8 billion per hour. Over the past four quarters, Tesla’s total revenues were $26 billion. Today, its value rose by $64 billion.

And the same source on the stock split:

> The stock split did the job, based on the logic that a five-dollar bill broken into five ones makes each of those ones suddenly worth $1.16 — or $1.87 if you start counting since the announcement of the split on August 11.

And I think this really puts things into perspective:

> Tesla’s shares are now valued at about 20 times annual revenues. [...] In terms of market cap, this makes Tesla the seventh most valuable US company – not counting Alibaba.

A car company that sold just 400K cars in its best year is the seventh most valuable US company. Unbelievable.

That public perception has a lot to do with Dick Wolf creating the Law & Order television series. Historically, cops have not been loved by their communities (one of the reasons the supreme court saw fit to introduce the absurd doctrine of "qualified immunity" was because cops had it hard enough without also being legally on the hook for every action they take).

Oh. Sorry. Overloaded term. URL location hash, not git hash. To see it, type `location.hash` in your browser's JavaScript console.

If I want to render a page foo.md, I will go to:

This is not how location hashes are meant to be used, mind you, and this breaks semantics, but it has the huge upside of running on any static web server, anywhere, including nothing but JavaScript. Until recently, it even ran on file:/// URLs, but that got nerfed a couple of years ago.

>> Most teachers are not good, so self-study is essential.

It's not even about teachers being good or bad. It's about something called "illusion of competence". Basically, everything seems easy while teacher is explaining it on whiteboard, but when facing similar task on your own, outside of the classroom you are completely lost, don't know where to start. Homework helps dispell that illusion.
I doubt it.

The limitation isn’t moving money, there are tons of ways for consumers to pay creators money, it’s all the services around payment that Patreon provides to both producer and consumer. Things like recurring charges, places for premium content, charging structure tied to content release, fraud protection, support, and marketing. A decent chunk of that is outside the scope of what crypto can solve.

I think the idea that creators should cobble together Wordpress websites kind of weird. Most of these creators are artists, not engineers. They probably don’t have the inclination nor the skills to build a DIY patreon. If they’re going to move, someone needs to provide a turnkey solution for them.

I've thought about a similar idea; VCS backed documentation tool with an (optional) web based interface. The reason I started thinking about this problem is because of how code documentation becomes so stale so quickly.

At my job, we try to separate documentation into technical, fast changing, repo specific information in the repo Readme and "how to", reference, big picture documentation into an external tool.

We use Confluence and I have several issues with it. Primarily, the web based editor is terrible and it doesn't let you see access statistics (without a plugin, last time I checked.)

The first contributes to documentation being stale because none of the developers want to futz around with it in addition to their project Readme. The second means that you can't look at the ratio between access and last modified times.

High Access/High Modification: crucial and currently changing information that needs to be monitored for accuracy fairly regularly

Low Access/Low Modification: non crucial, but also probably no longer relevant and is cruft that could be removed.

High Access/Low Modification: important information that may be outdated and should be reviewed.

Low Access/High Modification: potentially indicates a notepad situation that could identify a "knowledge silo" with one developer.

Is there a tool that can do this sort of analysis, offers a web interface for non developers, but also allows local editing?
What's a good open source JSON viewer GUI (or TUI) with Linux support (with collapsing trees, searching, filtering, diff, etc)?

I try to use jq whenever I can on the command line, but having good, local, visual tools (that aren't plugins to web browser or filled with electron cancer) would be nice.

Human Resource Machine CPU (Verilog)
Ever drive a manual transmission? At very low RPM the engine will seem to shake more. It isn't so much that there is less vibration at higher speeds but that it occurs at a higher frequency. That means the amount the part physically moves from one side of the oscillation to another is less, just as a higher-revving engine doesn't bounce around as much as it would at lower RPM. The total amount of noise/vibration may be similar but the change in frequency can still have other effects.
I was fortunate to have gone to a good high school at a time when the family was poor. It offered Latin and Greek (I don’t recall if it was ancient or not) intro courses. I don’t believe the HS offers that any more and those teachers were old then and now retired or dead.

Unfortunately as many a Highschool student are wont to do, I sadly ignored the opportunity to learn as it would help my curiosity now.

A lot of people have pointed out alternatives, but the killer feature of eg bookmarks (or maybe pocket?) is the categorization.

I have bookmarks that I've planned to review in 3 months. I'll have bookmarks for a tool I plan to try out on a future side project

I don't really care about the "how" (I take notes for various things -- books, movies, apps -- all over the place). But bookmarks are convenient and allow for the simplest of categorization, which I value
I'm pretty lazy, but I like testing..

The habit that I've repeated on my last few project is this:

Work out a way to gracefully serialize/deserialize data structures in your code into a human readable format, like EDN or pretty printed JSON. (this is easier in more civilized languages... -winks at Clojure-)

Pick high level functions that exercise a lot of code for testing.

Generate input data to exercise that function either by hand if it's small and tractable, or by instrumenting real runs of the program and outputting serialized copies of that data (to file or console).

Write test helpers that call the function with the input data, and depending on an environment variable, read the expected 'golden' data from disk, or if UPDATE_TEST_RESULTS=true, write the function output back to disk with a filename unique to the test, and mark the test as passed. If the test fails, print a nice readable, structural diff of the expected/actual data - e.g. python datadiff, or clojure.data/diff so the exact change is visible.

On the first run you set UPDATE_TEST_RESULTS=true and generate the expected test results. Check your 'golden' result data into git.

Now you can easily keep expected results up to date even if logic changes, and get a git diff of exactly how the data has changes.

Acknowledged that this doesn't speak to side effect riddled code that needs mocks.. and doesn't buy into the build-the-test-first style of development, but I've found it's a good return on investment for regression testing, and provides visibility into subtle logic changes, expected or otherwise, introduced by code changes.
I've been using https://www.gitbook.com/ for my personal wiki for the last year, it has a Notion-like UI and syncs changes to GitHub as markdown files.

The UI is a little buggy and much less polished than Notion and co. Though it looks nice and does the job for simple rich text.

But most importantly I don't have to worry about lockin if gitbook goes out of business, loses my data, increases their pricing, worsens the UI, or pivots to another business model - straight away I can use my text editor or the GitHub online editor.

Git is a great fit for wikis!
It's not the most used function because browsers already have a 'favorite' function, bookmarks. I used a scrapbook extension in FireFox for years so even though I know it existed I've never used it. But this post actually serves to shine some light on it and I'll give it a shot for a few weeks to see how well it works for me. HN has some amazing threads every now and then and it is really worth remembering those.
Neither of those are significant for paying musicians, even if they're better than Spotify. This is why things like Patreon and Bandcamp have become so significant: the streaming providers are essentially not able to pay content creators at all, so none of them constitute a business plan for anything but themselves.

There are fines for drunk driving or DWI and they do not include seizure of the car or a monetary fine even close to the value of the car stolen by police here.
