My answer is in this excellent series I read a while ago: https://sanctum.geek.nz/arabesque/series/unix-as-ide/

Which, admittedly, is essentially the same as the other answers you got, but that's how I've been working for three years, since I decided to use vim exclusively.

At the start, I was really tempted to install plugins, but ultimately I decided not to. Both to practice with the terminal (which has been immeasurably beneficial) and to make it as easy as possible to switch computers at the drop of a hat without losing productivity: just install vim and I'm good to go (and often not even that is required since vim comes preinstalled often enough).
I think Mr Rogers would have carved out a niche in the internet just as surely as you and I are having a reasonable discussion involving hackers from all over the world.
Just try again please, or try another sing up method. There are small and known bugs with login, but the app itself should work.
The issue with blog posting is that you need to have a capture for the audience or a funnel. On HN you can be read immediately in the sea of comments but in a blog post it would have to be published and I would need to have someone find it for me or find it. It would be cool if there was a better way than reading comments on the blog post about their similar article.
> Our current President repeatedly threatens journalists and the media with criminal punishment

Nope. He verifiably does not. The only time Trumps sued the press was when Melania sued Daily Mail for libel. Daily Mail lost and paid her $2.9M. https://www.snopes.com/news/2017/04/12/daily-mail-melania-tr...

If Trump sued for libel every time (which, IMO, he should, to provide some negative feedback to the system that's otherwise unstable), he'd put half the press in the country out of business by now.

How the empty seats of SC/ST in the IITS reflect that they are disadvantaged? They have much less cut off, many SC/ST give the exam, their fees is much much less than the general category, they get scholarships. How are they disadvantaged ?
My wife pointed out that in South African English, which comes from British you don't pronounce the final "r" in words after a vowel.
Don’t listen to what nations say, see what they do, which goes for both countries.
A careful reading of the comments indicates he has arrived!
And if there’d been ranked choice voting in 92, Bush Sr. would likely have won over Bill Clinton.
Haven't heard of this before. Do you have a source?
What misinformation about corona did he spread? It's my understanding that governments all around the world and the WHO were also responsible for spreading massive misinformation at the start of the pandemic.

For example, WHO were vehemently against border closures with China and they parroted the CCP's lies of no community transmission in late January (despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary).

Even Dr Fauci worked hard to spread the misinformation (he knew it was false at the time) that masks were not protection against the virus. He later admitted he spread this misinformation in order to protect supplies for healthcare staff.
No, all strings theoretically exist in 𝛑 given enough digits, so longer strings don't reduce probability of existence, they just mean that it will take more digits to find them.
The misunderstanding comes from choosing a name for it that stongly implies it is not the thing that it is.
Yeah, good point.

There are similarly jingoistic contemporary Asian powers that pretend everything offends them. It's dangerous.
UPDATE: (as of 36 upvotes): Thanks everyone for trying it out and hitting me with the traffic. Great Show HN.

Found a memory leak. Luckily it self heals on crash, so downtime is minimal. You can expect this api to be live 55/60 minutes. Will be fixing tomorrow - for now, it's bedtime.

If you want to wait for something with guaranteed uptime, jump on the waitlist at https://www.booste.io and I'll be reaching out when appropriate.
Just education and toys. The simplest ones like this aren't even Turing-complete, so you couldn't really program much in them even if you wanted to as a weird challenge - they're more like automated Etch-a-Sketches.

They do make for good languages for toy robots, though - for instance, you can use Scratch with Lego Mindstorms in a way that's not much more advanced than Logo.
>discrimination cannot be overcome without intervention

There have been many people in history who have overcome discrimination without intervention, so this can't be true. Just because it's harder doesn't mean it's impossible.

Did you mean to say something more specific?
Your description pretty much sums it up for me.

I use vim primarily for around 9 years now, and with ALE as a linter plugin it's integrated with languages I even don't know existed until I need to fix something in it in a foreign codebase.

If I need to go typescript or web, vscode is very tightly integrated with the build toolchains, so the occasional fix in vscode is necessary for me when I need to fix a bug upstream.

I tried migrating to neovim a lot of times, but their syntax highlighting is always so damn broken even with a plain vimrc that I stopped bothering anymore.

Currently, I'm trying to migrate to kakoune because I've heard a lot of nice things, and the ecosystem seems to be better integrated with lsp and rust, but honestly my muscle memory is damn strong, so it's actually kind of a burden at the moment and I'm gonna need a while if I keep pursuing this.

One benefit though that both emacs and vim have is ssh usage. Debugging and reading logs on a remote server is pain sometimes, and my vim profile eases that sooo much up that I saved a shitload of time by using it.
It would be cool to do the same using KVM. You can use a magic I/O port instead of an interrupt as the upcall mechanism, on the other hand trapping interrupts has to be done from the DOS side...
How I got a job as a web developer without a degree
Exactly, except for your last sentence I totally agree. I wish this was a more widely held view. How interesting would it be to build devices that interact with this effect, among other benefits that could come from research and wide use.

I don't know if there's classified accepted theories about how this works, but I think there's no public info that has been supported by science.

Your last sentence I think it's maybe a factor why it's classified... But I think the fact that this is a weapon and intelligence source must be the main one. But given that, why would there be so much unclassified from center lane? I think it only makes sense logically if they have a countermeasure... Which is super interesting in itself.

About the future I don't think it changes it or affects free will as much as people think and not more than anything else. For instance say you're driving down the highway and you're trying to get to some place and what can you do you don't have a map you can just read the signs and try and make the right turn offs and then find your way there. But if I stop your car and give you a GPS suddenly you know exactly how to get there and maybe the information is not always accurate but it's better than not having a map at all. It lets you see down the highway and down the path much further than if you didn't have that augmented information. I think this ability is just like that. Did the GPS change your future because it told you that there's traffic up ahead or this particular route is going to be quicker than this other route or does it mean you don't have free will because it showed you the correct turn off starts here and you then take it, whereas if you didn't have this GPS you were going to miss it.

I think every creature needs to have some idea of the future in front of it so I think everybody's always getting some sort of model of or information about their possible futures and they're making choices with regard to that.... does that information or them having choices mean that the future is predetermined or there's multiple paths...I think that's a separate maybe philosophical question. But I think all that this kind of ability does is augment and provide more information about those possibilities. I don't think it's fundamentally changes the game on the question of free will or predetermination.

I have my own theory about how it works. That there's the informational field, which contains all information about everything that ever exists, and you can tune into, and query this. I think there's quantum structures in our brains that are transceivers to access this. I wonder what's the overlap between consciousness and this informational field.... And is the informational field encoded in particles/fields we can already detect, or something else.
You would definitely be excused for feeling puzzled. I got thrown into a full time cross-platform .NET development role with zero experience in .NET, and figuring out how it all fit together (especially a couple of years ago) was a nightmare.

I wrote down some of my discoveries here: https://two-wrongs.com/dotnet-on-non-windows-platforms-brief...
Nah, I didn't, I stayed at home, I'm just telling the issue my friends and former coworkers had. They get paid well (we're talking coders/developers/engineers, not meat packers).

Why do americans have no incentive to work in meat packing plants? What you're advocating for is to offer (below) minimum/livable pay for every work possible, and then, if noone local applies (because the wage is too low), just get some foreign workers from some shitty country (legal or illegal), and exploit them. Wouldn't it be better to just stop immigration for shitty paid jobs (in situations like now, with relatively high unemployment), and passively force the employers to just pay more to get enough workers?

When a big company (eg. one with a logo of a famous mouse), fires whole teams of local workers, and replaces them with cheaper H1B workers ( https://money.cnn.com/2016/01/25/technology/disney-h1b-worke... ), whole HN/reddit/... is outraged, with "disney bad!". Why would you let meat packing plants do this? Why not just say "no, you wont get immigrant workers, when there are so many local ones unemployer, and you'll get punished if you hire illegals", and just work with that?

Otherwise, again, as someone living in a small EU country, i could never understand how a large company can employ illegal workers, and how illegals can stay in the country (and even get benefits, send kids to school, etc.), without the system noticing (because all of that is pretty much impossible anywhere else in the developed world.
This looks great, can't wait to try it out!
Brazil as well, ie. many appartments have dedicated toilet/facilities built-in for empregadas who live sunny part of the day in the house cleaning/cooking etc.
> It's incredibly fast and productive and has allowed me to create more as a single-person than entire teams using other languages.

Another startup founder and CTO here. Can confirm this. Once you get to know the framework, it's really hard to describe how productive you can become. Static type checking, fast compile times, LINQ!, ... It's a 10x ecosystem in the hands of competent developers.

So, our back-end and business logic is in .netcore/C#. Our front-end is a desktop app written in Java 11/JavaFX. The two communicate with a thin IPC layer (stdio pipes). With "new" java (11 and onwards) I'm almost as productive as with C#. If C#/.net is 10x, I'd rate Java as 8x.
"No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay."

Article 1, Compact 3 of the US Constitution.

That's the basis of questioning the legality of the NPVI
What about "Path Vote" AKA the Schulze method?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schulze_method

"The Schulze method (/ˈʃʊltsə/) is an electoral system developed in 1997 by Markus Schulze that selects a single winner using votes that express preferences. The method can also be used to create a sorted list of winners. The Schulze method is also known as Schwartz Sequential dropping (SSD), cloneproof Schwartz sequential dropping (CSSD), the beatpath method, beatpath winner, path voting, and path winner.

The Schulze method is a Condorcet method, which means that if there is a candidate who is preferred by a majority over every other candidate in pairwise comparisons, then this candidate will be the winner when the Schulze method is applied."
Show HN: Leverice: team messaging with deep threading
Hi HN,

We've been busting our behinds building Leverice for the last year. It's team messaging, but with structure. We built it for teams and team leads who are tired of drinking from a firehose when it comes to communications.

Haven't publicized it much yet but we also just started opening up our ecosystem, can code "native" apps in Groovy that overlay workflows or other cool things on top of the messaging platform: this is much more than a webhook or your typical bot plugin. The pure code is deployed and adds native functionality to the app.

Would love for folks to give it a test drive and get feedback.

We don't advertise it but if you open our site https://www.leverice.com in Chrome and click the Sign In button, it will take you straight into the app.

I also made a brief walkthrough of some of our basic features, if you'd prefer to see it on video: https://www.loom.com/share/146df52f77d34570b9e083fbc667701d

Feel free to email me questions, concerns, feedback, praise or haterade, to d.velton at leverice dot com
Performance of fabrics for home-made masks: A quantitative mechanistic study
The article concludes with suggesting people adopt the ‘soft no’. If the readers of this advice have issues with tension or anxiety (which is where the article seems to be targeted), that could backfire quite badly. If a person is known for their people pleasing yeses, a soft no could just be sending the signal that the requester needs to apply more pressure. Saying no naturally involves some level of confrontation, skirting around the confrontation usually has the effect of also skirting around the delivery of the correct message.
I comment for myself first.

In my experience, I may not remember what the heck I was thinking writing that code even 5 minutes later.

If I ever start wondering what my code is supposed to do, once I figure it out, I comment.

After doing this for a while, I've learned what I'll probably want to know later, and what will seem obvious.

Besides this addition, I think your outline hits the nail on the head.
Honestly the media hating on Rogan isn't more complicated than getting eyeballs and ad revenue.

"How X makes you fat" or "Why X is more dangerous than you think" where X is something common and popular. In this case X is just Joe Rogan instead of coffee or chocolate.
these banners are the BANE of the internet. Just block cookies yourself if you don't want them used. And if someone wants to track / fingerprint you their are myriad ways to do so. Why people love pushing these absolutely crazy interactions I don't get - it makes you realize how clueless and/or out of touch privacy advocates sometimes are.

My city website has so many popups / popover you have to accept EVERY single time you visit it is not usable on mobile. Accept / decline I don't care on cookies. And many websites just bump you off the website if you don't accept.

I'm serious - when you have ISPs selling your browsing history, addins and trackers and website profile tools live capturing your every mouse movement, are cookies the great evil of the internet that must drive a billion (?) click on "accept" every day?

My own solution - allow for an "I accept cookies" header - you set it ONCE on your browser and people owe you $100 if they show you a cookie popup. Now THAT would be a law I could get behind!
I think there's an art to getting a good interview and I think people misjudge him.

I remember reading a quote that said "the golden rule of conversation is to know nothing accurately."

I lived in a former communist country ("former" in both ways... not communist anymore, and also, I haven't moved, the country just doesn't exist anymore).

Wanting to get cheaper labour is universal, capitalism has nothing to do with that.
I've been lucky enough to be independent for 10 years thanks to a web-app (Oxbridge Notes)

Along the way, I learned a lot concerning both system design (e.g. dependencies, CI testing, monitoring) and also the marketing side required to channel enough customers into the business to generate revenue.

Lately I've recorded 25 or so videos about these topics — basically a day in the life in small tech. If this is your world (or if you plan for this to be your world), these videos should have value to you: https://www.semicolonandsons.com/
I don't understand how consciousness works and I can't say I have first hand experienced your consciousness, but I don't assume your having consciousness is bullshit... I suppose because you're a person... and I can see the effects of your consciousness.
Software is both a standalone industry and a skillset embedded within all industry. It is like management. Yes there are professional managers, consulting companies and the like. But you can't have good management by hiring professional managers. You have good management by becoming professional managers, assuming you already know you domain well. That's why an MBA on its own is useless, unless one is to enter consulting

I would say the same applies to software development

I listened to one of his podcasts where he made comments about Bernie Sanders saying some good things but some things he didn't quite buy.
For a more interesting experiment Fargo had an election with Approval Voting[0].

Unfortunately RCV (IRV) doesn't solve many of the problems that it claims to do. One of the claims is that IRV prevents spoilers, which is objectively false[1][2]. We're pretty interested in the Favorite Betrayal Criterion to prevent this[3]. We also see that IRV has a fairly poor voter satisfaction efficiency (VSE)[4][5].

It really feels like people just watched the CGP Grey videos on election science and dug no further. Even Arrow himself said that cardinal voting (Approval, score, STAR) is probably the likely answer. They also tend to be much simpler as they only are single rounds and resistant to people accidentally "ranking" two candidates equally (which you might actually favor two candidates equally and these methods let you express that).

Exact same problem here. Archive backup doesn't work, mails are not answered. And it's not the first time.

When he was having fun dabbling in US politics, Pinboard was regularly misbehaving.

Archiving didn't work for weeks and months, after repeated mails, archiving worked again, failed again three weeks later. I went through that cycle several times.

There doesn't seem to be any monitoring or canaries in place, it's always "my account misbehaves, he does something, and the problem is manually solved". For me, not everyone else, presumably.

For god's sake, set up two or three dummy accounts and have them re-bookmark the same site again and again, see if it works. Have them export their archives every week, see if it works.

It became much more reliable when election season was over, but now it looks like he's lost interest in Pinboard again.

My subscription renewal is coming up and I'm thinking hard about leaving Pinboard. I like the interface, I like the features, I hate that it breaks all the time and the operator doesn't care.
New jobs can be created. Once upon a time before automobiles there were workers who picked up horse poop and maintained stables. And one day, those jobs disappeared. And new jobs were created. We can’t stop progress. Imagine if the Luddites had won...
I spent some time looking at voting systems, and also in attending a conference on voting systems 15 years ago.

Elections require a few things - one of them being transparency. Another is trust.

Thus while elegant mathematical solutions such as the one you presented, may be more accurate, they are also impossible for the lay man to understand. And for journalists to explain. For many this erodes the transparency,leading to mistrust.

This is the core reason why simple, but explainable approaches are preferred.
Tesla sold less than 400k cars last year.

For comparison, Toyota sold more than 10.4 million cars in 2019.

Ford sold more F150s in 2019 than Tesla has sold cars in the past 3 years.
A "soft no" implies respectful environment. Current working and world conditions precludes this.

If you find yourself working for an environment that has started positive transformation, a "soft no" will be heard. This is indicative of such an environment (a listening environment).

In some cases as other socioeconomic and ethnic groups have moved into New York they have picked up features of traditional New York speech.

The most prominent example I can think of is Cardi B. She has a heavy Bronx accent, and will say “talk” and “walk” in the old New York manner of “tawlk” and “wawlk”.
I wrote a limerick in third grade, when my regular teacher kicked me out of class and sent me to Mrs. Spencer's Workshop, where we got to do our own projects.

It wasn't a great limerick, and Mrs. Spencer had to help me with it:

There was a young lad from Dunn School

Over books with good looks he would drool

The books got so soggy,

They were fed to the doggie!

That poor young lad from Dunn School

After that unauspicious start, I went on to drawing maps of freeway interchanges. When I finished those, I decided I wanted to make a printed circuit board.

I figured I needed a kitchen cutting board (for the "board" part), a sheet of copper, some electrical tape to act as resist, nitric acid to etch away the unmasked parts of the copper, and a fish tank to hold the nitric acid.

So Mrs. Spencer got me all of those! I laid out the tape on both sides of the copper sheet and dunked it in the tank of nitric acid. We watched the copper dissolve into the acid, and there were the traces for my circuit board.

Of course we didn't need eye protection. We were all immortal and invulnerable in those days.

It was the most awesome third grade class ever!

I get hyperbole, but using phrases like "crimes against humanity" is really effective in people just dismissing everything else you say. Crimes against humanity are things like genocide, not owning a platform that spreads misinformation. And to my understanding, Facebook is pretty good at censoring content that actually calls for violence.
polarizing and clickbait might be synonyms.
