A video of an event isn’t news. It’s data. News is the information that can be extracted from the video and other sources and put in context.

The Twitter user doesn’t ask questions or if he does they are the wrong questions of the wrong people. And why should he bother asking any questions? He’s not getting paid and his viewers aren’t generally seeking news.

That’s not to say Twitter couldn’t work this way, with Joe Random posting about things on his block. It just doesn’t work that way now because the incentives are just not there. My Nextdoor feed is full of news about my neighborhood, but it’s wrong as often as not. Having a setup like the GP suggests is basically necessary to develop trust between readers, authors, and sources, regardless of how the author delivers their content.
I'm sorry, I don't understand your derision towards the line you quoted.

Good. I consider 14 days of paternity leave the absolute minimum; less than that is just irresponsible, because you really shouldn't leave the mother alone during that time. Official maternal care is rarely full-time. Also, those maternal care people can teach you a lot of useful things about how to take care of your baby that are also important to learn for a father.

More time is better because of extra bonding with the new family, and it can be stressful for the newborn to go to fulltime childcare before they're 6 months old (after that, I think at least some childcare is good for socialisation).

I love the generous paternal leave Scandinavians get. When I had my kids, Dutch paternity leave was only 2 days: one for the birth itself, and one for registering your baby's birth. Only in 2019 did they expand that to a whole whoppingly insufficient week.

For both kids, I took 3 months off. For the first, it initially was two weeks; not sure if I took it as days off or sick care or something; I hadn't planned to take time off originally, until I suddenly realised I simply couldn't go to work, so I called in and said I couldn't work. After those two weeks, I went back to work, and after my wife's maternity leave had ran out and she was eager to get back to work, I took 3 months parental leave (might have been unpaid; not sure). For the second it was unpaid, because I'm a freelancer, but I don't care. This stuff is more important.
Having 12 kids seems like a lot more work than most jobs.
"the browser starts streaming micropayments every second while you are engaging with the content."

This sounds bad. Websites will have even more reason to delay you with slow scrolling, filler text, popup windows just to make you stay on the website longer. Kind of like subscription based MMORPGs have slow travel times, long character leveling and a lot of grind to make you play longer.
Peak demand for electricity occurs in the evening. If you're going to fulfill this demand with nuclear power, the just run the nuclear power plants at full capacity all day and don't bother with any storage or solar panels.
A magnitude 5.1 earthquake would not have done much to a GE Mark I BWR like the one in Fukushima - the 2011 magnitude 9 earthquake didn't damage the Fukushima Mark I. The tsunami did.

This is a bad kind of fearmongering.
> hopelessly dependent on OOP

What are you talking about?

Sure OOP has its downsides, but

JS classes are just functions used to build custom data types. You could just as easily create the same structures with arrow functions that return objects.

Some languages paradigms encourage OOP more than others. TypeScript is one of them, even if you choose to ignore it, as most React devs seem to.
The first time I encountered this I was legitimately surprised. I have since accepted it as "a thing that just is" when traveling, but I suspect the same is true for united893: they are lucky enough to have never needed to think through this kind of scenario until now.

Will it empty my wallet as I attend an emergency?

Will we see an uptick of sleazy tactics?

At least for articles I ask: make it inexpensive for providers and simple for me. I pay them for articles, they show me articles, preferably easy to download as pdf.

I'd probably pay a few tens more pr year for regional or global news as well as quality blog posts. (I already subscribe to the local newspaper and one national newspaper and I'm forced to pay a few hundred for the national broadcasting.)

But like Tim I am not going to add more subscriptions unless they are just like Spotify, - and even then I think that will be a bad deal for both me and the publishers.
I’m from India, thanks for doing this.
Thailand is actually quite safe. You are going to find a few horror stories but generally, as long as you stay away from the most common scams (which you can find in all travel guides), you will not be more at risk than in first world countries.

One reason Thailand is safer than most "third world" countries is that tourism is taken very seriously by the government. Most notably, they have a "tourist police" that can be called if you run into trouble.

Also note that most "scams" are just overpricing. Sure, it sucks paying 5 times the local price, but when it is 10 times more expensive in your home country, it is not really a big deal.
It's a matter of money more than it's a matter of "culture".
Developers cost a lot more than typographers and delivery boys and you need a lot of them to run a modern online media. A developer on staff is sort of like a subscription that the newspaper pays.

The way to bring back advertisement to newspapers is to use antitrust rules and to start taxing search engines and social networks. When Facebook or Google runs an ad for my local gym, it is taxed in some remote tropical island (where it's usually not taxed at all). When my local newspaper runs the same ad, it's taxed locally. Basically, where I see the ad.

I don't like advertisement in newspapers more than the next guy but that was how our democracy worked. News media got paid. With that money they could do journalism. Now, most of that money goes to a handful of companies that do very little to keep a check on politicians.
As long as the competitors are no better, there is little risk.
Specifically on the court element, don't forget that courts can be faked too. And for a better example of a faked court show, you need go no further than OJ Simpson. What an event that was!

> But China blocks American companies from their market, or extracts unfair concessions from them. So the US should do the same until they change their practices.

This needs a little more motivation. 19th-century China (and indeed, early 20th-century China) systematically broke the feet of all upper-class women, preventing them from ever being able to walk normally. But I don't think the primary reason we don't do that is that China stopped doing it.

One of things I've read already long ago is about priming: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5266685/

Showing one different pictures change walking speed, at the very least. And effects can last as long as year: http://www.bm.ust.hk/mark/files/staff/Bob/mkwyer-JCP-2014-24...

TikTok, being a massive analytical (see other discussions at HN) and priming platform, allows for quite interesting effects on the humans to be discovered and/or tested.

Facebook is primarily text which is low bandwidth and it goes through higher thinking. TikTok is high bandwidth from the start and is primarily analyzed using much older parts of brain.

I do not like Facebook (don't have account) and I vehemently hate TikTok.
This very much depends on how you do the heating / cooling.

An efficient way to heat a house is to have a heatpump plus low temperature floor heating (and cooling). This system works best by keeping the floor at a constant temperature, day and night.

Of course, a house also needs to be properly insulated and have ventilation with heat recovery

I do agree with a number of your points but what about mobile phones built by Chinese companies, what about all apps developed in China. How do you know what is and isn't CCP controlled?

Just seems a slippery slope, or how do you know if an American app isn't funnelling data to CCP.

The problem is mobiles open us to such attacks.
I don't really understand your point. Are you saying we can't tackle a clear case of oppression because there are other cases of oppression? Why can't we talk honestly about and attempt to address all cases of oppression whenever we see them.
Plenty of western companies have been forced to apologize for listing Taiwan as a country. China recently passed a law in Hong Kong that makes criticism of the regime a crime world wide. There's also the whole overwatch debacle.

China does not care about free speech, nor does it pretend to. Allowing a popular forum for speech to operate out of China is dangerous.

Roughly equivalent: why do people shop at Whole Foods when they can get the same food cheaper at a farmer’s market? The produce is washed, curated for imperfections, and marked up.

These streaming platforms are not perfect as no product since Unix has been, but to think altruistic programmers working for free can do an equivalent job is hubris. These interfaces take years of iteration and optimization in subtle ways like Netflix A/B testing thousands of generated cover photos.

Indeed, Thailand is an amazing, beautiful country, it's nobody's loss but yours if a "Florida-man" type of story will influence your travel plans.

On the other hand, if you simply insist on absolute freedom of speech across the entire globe, and can't trust yourself to ever self-censor, then yes I would suggest you stay away, lest you run afoul of Thailand's lese-majeste laws.
Being a petrostate has nothing to do with it. Any healthy economy can afford this, if they care about parenthood.
Flamanville reactor in France was supposed to cost 3.3 G€ in 2007, it is now at 19.1 G€ in 2020 and called a "mess" by energy minister (https://www.montelnews.com/en/story/french-epr-is-a-mess--en...).

Nuclear energy is great but it is a pain to build, maintain, manage, decommission etc.
That only works if there is an open neighbour. If we end up with authoritarian control being ubiquitous, as potentially with a victory by the axis powers, or the success of global Communism, there wouldn't be any open neighbours to compete with.
as was the previous reactor disaster; as will be the next one.
> newspapers can't live from small payments on popular articles only

Printed newspapers were surviving just fine despite selling for a few bucks despite it being a physical piece of paper that needed to be printed & delivered on very tight schedules.

The same model should be applied for the web - the price point is already proven to be affordable enough for the majority of the market, and the lack of logistics would generate higher profits.

This is fantastic! If I had a wish I'd wish for the addition of split keyboard layouts (like Ergodox) and the Granite color scheme.

One minor thing: I can scroll through the list of color schemes with the cursor keys but the selected color scheme doesn't activate until I click with the mouse. I don't know if it is possible but it would be cool if you could zap through the color schemes just with the keyboard.

Thanks for making this!
The Deutsches Museum is currently in a renovating and reconfiguration phase, has been for four years, and will be for at least another year. Things are about to change.

I can but hope it won't change too much. I love the exhibit on nuclear power (with a life-sized cutaway of a containment vessel), the air&space exhibit (which includes a V2, and a piece of the moon) and the Newtonian physics exhibit.
People are talking about benevolence and ineptitude. I'm not. I'm talking about power.

Whether its benevolent or inept or amazing or whatever - its all a show and a distraction to keep you from taking the right actions in your personal life. Your experience in framed by what you see on the TV and read. 'They' are running what you think about and what you do. Rage against Golstein, the Engsoc whatever. But while you do, you are within the system, playing the game that has been predetermined for you.

When it comes to real answers, I think Gwenyth Paltrow said it best :) "Conscious Uncoupling" from all the artefacts/stories of the system is required, to start to reclaim personal power.
How about the Kickstarter model: you don't pay to access an already written article, but fund a campaign for a newspaper to investigate a particular topic. The newspaper would create a list of topics they could investigate along with required budgets. This would promote investigative journalism, which can be very expensive.
This is only problem with that is out economic system. Normally I would assume that would clearly point out the perversion of it, but that seems to be just a dream. Otherwise humanity isn't really in danger of dying out.

You think people not having children are abusing the system? I know many who just don't want to become parents at 40 anymore, so they will never have children. That decision is also influenced by economic situations.
Not voting is a behavior pattern. Any behavior can be influenced by information propagation. The behavior of not voting has its own second order of effects. Also rooted in not believing in the structure one is participating in.

But that’s less my point, it’s more about the methods and attack vectors being an increased surface area now than ever before.

Also: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perception_management

“Chinese military scholars argue that their nation has a long history of conducting "psychological operations", a phrase that connotes important aspects of strategic deception and, to a certain degree, what the US Department of Defense portrays as perception management. For example, several articles published by the PLA's Academy of Military Science (AMS) journal Zhongguo Junshi Kexue, examine psychological warfare and psychological operations mainly as a deception-oriented function of military strategy.”

China are extremely skilled at psyops.
>CPNE de Nogent sur Seine suffered a critical failure, Paris and the entire Île-de-France region, which concentrate most of the French economic power, would need to be evacuated

Why ? Paris is as far from Nogent NPP (89 km) as Kiev is from Chernobyl NPP, so there's plenty of space to setup an exclusion zone, even in the worst case scenario of an open core meltdown (which are much less probable with Western PWR designs).

This is scaremongering.

For a user who is not concerned with the difference between kernel and userland, I think the analogy is good enough. Just throw in that it has to be a Linux system and you can get away with explaning it the same way you would VMs, just being more lightweight and reuses some of the "base system".
Great stuff! I'm currently a bit short on money, so thanks for making it available on GitHub :)

Just to save others a bit of googling time: I tried to build the project using Xcode 14 and ran into a problem with the Highlightr framework being compiled in Swift 5.1

error message:
"Module compiled with Swift 5.1 cannot be imported by the Swift 5.3 compiler: /Users/TheAdmin/Downloads/DevUtils-app-master/Carthage/Build/Mac/Highlightr.framework/Modules/Highlightr.swiftmodule/x86_64-apple-macos.swiftmodule"

The fix was to set the flag "Build libraries for distribution" in DevUtils>build Settings>build options to yes. If you've already tried building and failed, you may have to clean build folder, go to the derived data folder (~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData), delete the derived data for the project, and restart xcode before you build again
In Denmark you are not entitled to a full salary during your leave. You are entitled to around 2k€ per month from the government (if you qualify).

However, it is a quite common employee benefit, that the employer pays full salary for part of or for the entire parental leave. The employer is then reimbursed from the government for the first 2k€ every month.

Nothing prevents you from quitting when you get back from parental leave. Except that you probably already have a lot on your mind with a little child - why add the extra pressure of switching jobs?
This is clearly cultural. If I hadn't taken my several months of leave when my kids were pre-daycare age, that would have been effectively me being an "absent father" in the eyes of people around me. It simply isn't a very acceptable thing to do.

You get paid (80%). You can't get fired. Choosing not to do it means you don't want to do it, or you chose something else over your parental leave. Not only would skipping parental leave not be seen as normal by my social circle, it wouldn't be seen as normal by my manager or colleagues. I'd be getting questions like "you took zero weeks of leave when your son was born? why?".
