WayBackMachine is slow (slower than many bloated websites). So it’s not a good enough experience for the person clicking on that link.

Secondly, I personally don’t like the fact that WayBackMachine doesn’t provide an easy way to get content removed and to stop indexing and caching content (the only way I know is to email them, with delayed responses or responses that don’t help). It’s far easier to get content de-indexed in the major search engines. I know that the team running it have some reasons to archive anything and everything (as) permanently (as possible), but it doesn’t serve everybody’s needs.

We have a beach sun shade with the same sort of folding mechanism. Anyone can unfold it - you basically just unzip it and it explodes into the final product, but I'm always the assigned "Sun shade folder".

Maybe I don't understand it well enough myself, because I've only successfully taught one person. The key insight is definitely that you're going for three loops, not two or four.
I don't have to imagine. I'm a Chinese living in US. I use Wechat to video chat with my parents who live in China every week. In the past a couple weeks I have been trying to convince my dad to find a backup plan. Apparently anything owned by Facebook isn't an option. I don't know if Signal is an option but he won't try anyway. Telegram isn't an option. Snap isn't an option. So we went back to good old Skype. Guess what, there isn't Google play store in China. The Huawei app store (my dad uses a Huawei phone) doesn't have Skype in it. He managed to find the Chinese Skype website, operated by a company that isn't Miscrosoft but MS's partner in China, to download the APK, then his Huawei phone rejected to install it, because the APK isn't blessed by some Huawei security thingy.

We eventually settled down to use QQ which is also owned by Tencent. He also mentioned we could use this Tencent business meeting app, or that Alibaba business meeting app (dingding), but at that point i rejused. I was quite fed up after he couldn't to install Skepe on his phone. I think MS is one of the US companies that's so willing to bend over to most requests from Chinese gov but they are still treated like crap. If Trump bans QQ as well then I will just call my parents with the good old international telephone call. These Chinese tech co isn't gonna get another weekly active user just like that.

I even thought about setting up my own Jitsi server and let them just Jitsi to it, then i thought it must be even harder than installing Skype. VPN isn't an option. Any other way to circumvent the GFW will be too complicated for them. They will all be too low bandwidth to video chat anyway. Plus, illegal. You can find cases where individuals got punished because they use VPN. The government even lists them on a website. They ain't hiding or sugar-coating this crap no more.

So after this process, if you ask me, a Chinese living overseas, which side I'm gonna blame for how we got here, guess what, it won't be the US gov.

(Also this is from a burner account because I don't want nobody to knock on my parents door for this post.)

The Ozarks are awesome but I wouldn't consider them mountains just big hills. The St Francois mountains for example are only 1700 feet above sea level. Minnesota also has many points above 2000 feet that are awesome but again I wouldn't consider them Mountains either. There's no official definition of a mountain however so its all in the eye of the beholder.

>The early settlers of North American were in some sense selected by personality. It must have taken a certain sort of risk-taking personality to give up everything and climb aboard a crowded rickety passenger ship for a month-long journey to a vast and mostly uninhabited land.

Many early settlers were criminals. I wonder if that personality selection shines through.

And just to add to this, the IRS software could be significantly easier to use than the commercial offerings.

That is because they could pre-populate much of the W2/1099/stock sales/etc data since its all being reported to the IRS from other organizations. For the vast majority of people it could be as simple as logging into a web site and clicking "no" to a bunch of questions like "did you have more than 20k of medical bills last year", and then "I accept" at the bottom where it prints your final tax. As I understand it, that is how some other countries handle their taxes..

Sounds a bit like the "systemic failures" that brought down the housing market in 2008.

It's always been a surprise to me how much money is flowing from ads and how any business can be so reliant on it, since this makes it sound like it's fundamentally flawed. One would think the jig would eventually be up.
That is changing. I've noticed over the past couple of years that sites that could be accessed with JS turned off are now showing a "Please enable Javascript to continue" (Quora) or just hiding the content entirely (Business Insider).

I'm sure there are other examples as well.
I worked at a large web development company. The one thing which continually hamstrung the company was we had several large customers who were paying us a good chunk of money to maintain their web properties. They sucked up so much of our resources to keep them happy that other smaller customers suffered as a result.

The amount of churn we had was always the smaller clients who were still paying good money but felt neglected and would be open to changing vendors.

We went out of our way to mind the big clients and thought if we lost these few big clients it would so dramatically adverse the companies bottom line, we couldn't afford to lose them. This resulted in a situation where they were able to hold our company hostage, make unreasonable demands on time and energy and hamstrung our ability to keep our more loyal clients (who only bothered us on occasion) happy.

It was a good lesson there is a danger when you have a small company servicing a much larger company that you get into a position where your fear of losing them is a detriment to your other, more faithful clients.

I think that they're saying, in retrospect, they could have started making some payments on the debt a bit earlier when the business had scale and sustainability. And that in turn this would have avoided a lot of unpleasantness.

It's hard to change culture; you tend to keep doing what worked before even if it's not optimal anymore. Yesterday's adaptive behavior is today's unfortunate practice.
I'm far from being a developer perfectionist, I wouldn't spend 10 years in this company if I was one, trust me (btw we fired a lot of them along the way).

The point of the article is not to convince anyone to slow down as much as possible and work on bugs/etc. It's just that at some point (3, 4 years in?) there comes a time that you just have to put more effort into the things I described, otherwise it gets complicated fast.

Obviously there is a tradeoff, my opinion is that this tradeoff wasn't correctly balanced (especially further down).
I'm a Dev Manager but started as a mid-senior developer at my current company (now about 350 people). We grew a lot by acquisition and one thing I noticed was many "cultural silos" that made it hard to build a shared, unifying identity. Myself and another developer worked to try and address this with a lot of small things focused on cutting across teams & groups: a book club-style bi-weekly discussion, "Tech Talks" from across the teams to diverse audiences, some hackathons and making online conferences (MS, AWS, Google, Etc) into company events. Literally things that "make people spend time with people outside their direct team". It's been pretty successful and pushed lots of new initiatives in some unexpected areas.

So my advice would be to look for a broader area where you see a gap or failing, and then look for ways to address this that don't need a huge investment of people or resources; guerilla activities FTW! If you can show some success, you can then pursue as appropriate/desired...
Huh I wonder if they are also blocking mirrors. Also, in countries with restrictions to internet access you probably want to make using TOR a general habit.
Even better, the think tank attached to the article you linked to has an article explicitly rejecting the idea of pre-filled tax returns for taxpayers.[0]

So how exactly does Ted's plan to simplify the tax code have anything to do with filing in the first place if the organization you're backing up your argument with doesn't even support doing away with private tax prep? You think the tax code is gonna be simplified to the point that Intuit just lays down and says "welp, no more money to be made here, the market solved itself out of a revenue stream"?

Ha, nice. I’m reminded of that quote by Jenny Holzer:

> Disgust is the appropriate response to most situations.
> Planned obsolescence for most Google devices (Chromebooks

Google has only EOLd two Chromebooks ever, the Cr-48 that was supported from 2010-2015 and the Pixel, from 2013-2018. The current model is guaranteed to get updates through 2026. What's wrong with this?
You're right that we just experienced a heat wave that broke several daily and monthly temperature records. But this was a high pressure ridging event without much accompanying wind or thunderstorm activity. So the wildfire risk wasn't forecasted to be notably extreme, until today when the red flag warning sets in. But before you pick on that, the red flag warning is due to offshore winds, which would blow any fire and smoke away from the area these folks were hiking. The early August heatwave, in contrast, was accompanied by a decaying tropical storm had flung upper-level instability over California, causing the lightning storms you mentioned. On paper, the early August heat wave was much more dangerous. This was just a classic late-season heatwave, which usually makes for very enjoyable conditions in the high country.

On top of that, the area where these folks were planning to hike is in alpine terrain that's relatively light in tree and vegetation cover. The likelihood of the fire consuming them was extremely low. The main hazard would be smoke from a fire nearby, which is what happened. Additionally, wilderness permits for this area are very competitive, so they had to plan this trip 6 months ago and had no ability to change the time or location of the trip.

If it's your goal to assume as little risk as possible, you're right that you probably shouldn't go backpacking (or engage in any other outdoor pursuit). You probably also shouldn't be living in California. But for most people, it's a balancing act of risk versus reward, and there's not really any evidence to suggest that these folks made a foolish or dangerous decision.

Remember, hindsight is always 20/20 and it's very easy to criticize the decisions of others from the comfort of your armchair. If you'd like to do some more of that, there are many hundreds of thousands of Californians (myself included) who also headed up into the Sierra this weekend.
I don't think YC ever had a slogan to that effect.
Almost certainly because the attempts at creating "utopia" aren't anything of the sort - they are simple power grabs by whoever happens to be the most ruthless bunch of thugs.
> Unfortunately, history tells us that almost all major gains in freedom come, at one point, through violent conflict/sacrifice.

No, it doesn't. Recent history tells us exactly the opposite:

1) Rise of democracy in Latin America in the 70s and 80s (Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, Brazil)

2) Collapse of communism on Eastern Europe in the 80s and 90s.

3) Democracy in Eastern Asia in the 80s (Indonesia, Korea, Philippines, Pakistan).

4) Nigeria, Spain, Greece

These were achieved through pacific means. The cases of dictatorships that became democracies through violence are very few: Portugal, Romania...

Prior history of violent conflict is precisely what led to dictatorships hardening (leftist guerrilla groups in Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Uruguay, tentative coup in Indonesia, etc.)

Also, violent reaction against dictatorships quite often leads to other dictatorships (e.g.: Nicaragua, Cuba, Iran).

Edit: again, my point is that violent reaction against oppressive regimes is foolish and leads to the opposite of freedom. Violence is the authoritarians' favorite game because it provides them an excuse to do what they do best: brutal repression. You are already loosing when you play their preferred game.
Judges aren't just bureaucrats. Their role is held to a higher standard than petty interest. When they are compromised, they need to leave. The US system has judges elected, where the british and commonwealth system is by appointment, and few would argue that the mentally ill are not well represented in both their ranks, but there is a level of petulance in some of them that indicates risk of a total compromise of the institution.

Preview is one of macOS' best features, IMO. It's so simple and ubiquitous, but it can open practically anything and does a great job of it.

"feeling like a fraud" is pretty common, it is formally called "imposter syndrome".

It is usually just your mind playing tricks on you; there is a delta between your internal picture of what a "real" programmer (or senior manager, or whatever position) looks like and your internal image of yourself.

One solution is to duck type yourself until the feeling goes away. Another is to start to recognize that some of your internal definitions might not be shared by others.

I'll leave it as homework to decide which internal definitions matter the most here.
I think it's more likely that the British judge just disagrees with your assessment of the case. Unless you have any actual evidence of something more sinister, we'll just have to leave it there.
Can you get D3 from a store? Prescriptions are usually vitamin D2.

20,000 IU or 50,000 IU D3 1x/week is a great amount. Or you could try taking a lesser/proportional amount each day.

You could also get one of those sun/S.A.D. lamps or red light devices to increase topically.

(FWIW, local politics in my country does anecdotally skew rural/right urban/left, but we fortunately have many other different divisions whose axes are uncorrelated with that particular one. I firmly believe having more than two major parties helps immensely on this front.)

Incidentally, my ultra-low-dimensional model after 2016 was "how far away does a US voter live from the largest city in their watershed?" It remains to be seen if this simplistic metric predicts anything useful in 2020.

Satellites are a ton of fun! You should go for it. You -don't- need a full duplex radio to get started. It just helps and makes it easier for everyone else, too.

If you decide to... it's important to just plan to listen to a few passes and get to hearing the satellite really well before you try to transmit, though.

> Puppet is a great tool for managing containers, and so is Chef. There is nothing inherently good about YAML.

I am not sure what complex config state management solution brings to the table for immutable containers. The state is immutable, so there's nothing to manage after deployment. It's like using an atom bomb to take out a zit.

Puppet/Chef in their glory days, pre-cloud pre-container, excelled at managing desired state across numerous mutable static systems. With immutable solutions, Puppet/Chef are both cumbersome and expensive.
Can anecdotally confirm. Sometimes it quite annoys me that those personality traits are so embedded in myself though, because it seems to constantly be a headbutting of cultures that so many Americans on the coastal big cities just don't get or approve of, and love to condescendingly talk about that kind of personality as lesser or barbarous in some way.

I love the mountains and freedom they offered me, the lessons they taught me, and the beauty and solitude from an exhausting world they provided. After the war when I became an atheist, I would tell others in the community when they asked me to go to church that the mountains are my church.

All that said, I doubt it will last. There is a huge influx of people (not just retirees, but refugees from the coastal cities) who would be considered rich into mountain communities, driving out the locals by prices and changing the demographic hugely. I keep a close eye on land for sale and land parcels that used to be huge are starting to be divided into 5 acre parcels and sold off... I can already see the distant future of this, turning mountain towns into you have to be rich towns like Aspen, and it makes me very sad.

I can't wait till we have independent space travel, which is when I believe the frontier spirit will be reborn again. Humanity will need it then again! Alas, I probably won't live that long.

Worked for a SaaS that took in sales data and generated customer surveys. There were a few things I did
1. Create an easy way for support to login as a different user so that they could see what the customer sees.
2. Created a report that figured out how often each customer sends data and noticed when they were 2 standard deviations away from their average data send. We went from customers calling upset that their data is not up to date to us calling them and letting them know that they stopped sending us data.

Let's face it Shell and Raytheon have much much larger ad buying budget than probably any/all of your actual interests combined. If Shell/Raytheon/types target the same audience as smaller vendors with smaller ad buys, then they will always lose the auction. If someone has a $500/month budget, they will lose to someone with a $5000 budget. This is why I think these "targeted" ad pushers are the actual fraud.

Other mediums of advertising sell you a specific ad on a certain page of a website/newspaper/magazine/etc. You have no idea how many people really look at it. You make your decision on if the site/paper/zine attracts the crowd you are interested in. Buying TV/Radio ads also says for your ad buy you will get X number of ads in certain time spots, or for more money you can have your ad played during specific times during specific shows. Again, you have no idea on the exact number of people seeing/hearing your ad, but at least you know it's getting played.
I'm not sure what you mean. Why shouldn't the methods of science be used to tackle these kinds of questions?
