Frequent flyer programs make a lot of money for airlines but so does flying. Credit cards are also a huge money maker for airlines.

The article is looking at valuation, not actual revenue.

It's kind of like the idea that certain routes lose money but airlines keep those routes around because they add value to the network. Scott Kirby of United has stated that he wants to bring JFK-LAX/SFO back because of the value it added for customers who didn't want to go to EWR even though the JFK routes supposedly lost money.

Also, it's not like we've seen a successful spinoff of a loyalty program. Look at Air Canada or Virgin Atlantic.
You also left out the possibility that the student is under an IMMENSE amount of pressure to succeed from family.

I've actually saw that happen a couple of times back in college (my university was good, but not in a good area,) where the pressure some students faced because they were the first one to go to college/etc. At a young age something like this could have a huge impact on how ones family views them.
Downvotes happen. Complaining about downvotes causes more downvotes to happen. There's a reason the guidelines say "don't comment about voting".
This doesn't seem like a factor in favor of USB-C. I regularly charge any of two dozen USB device in my house from any of a half dozen smart chargers, using too many micro-B cables to count, and it has been months since I spent even one moment thinking about compatibility among them all. This kind of setup was already common.

My USB-C devices are the ones I need to worry about. All of the chargers I've bought (not the ones that came with devices) have at least one USB-C port, but the charger I have in my bedroom is too weak for the laptop I'm using in the family room right now, which is precisely why they stay in different rooms. And then there's the Switch, as others have mentioned. At least for the devices I own, USB-C is far more differentiated/fragmented than USB-B. The only thing that's unified is the physical connector.

ETA: I see a lot of other comments saying they don't have problems. Almost to a one, they seem to be Mac users talking about fairly static setups, and recommend "top of the line" (i.e. expensive) docks etc. I suggest that those experiences are even less representative of the typical non-HN user than my own.

> often quite literally belonging to a small group of people.

1. Almost all capital belongs to a small group of people today. Humans don't, but that doesn't go as long a way as you would hope.

2. For most of pre-industrial history of our species, it was not the case that a small minority owned most of everything. In many countries it was only relatively recently that village/tribe communal holdings or land use rights were abolished in favor of private property.
Peso does seem to be a decent option. Folks might no longer be familiar with the Italian lira, and "Sky Zimbabwean Dollar" or "Sky Drachmae" don't quite roll off the tongue.
"Police forces across Ontario engaged in broad, illegal searches of a now-defunct COVID-19 database, two civil rights groups alleged Wednesday, claiming the use of the portal violated individual privacy rights for months."

My question right off the bat - what was this database, and what was it replaced with? I thought the new app wasn't accessible like that, so how was this database generated?

"In early April, the Ontario government passed an emergency order that allowed police to obtain the names, addresses and dates of birth of Ontarians who had tested positive for COVID-19. The portal was aimed at helping to protect first responders."

Ah, it's not any sort of database off the App, just a regular old violation of our health privacy rights like any other day.
The entire of wikipedia's English text is only about 15GB, and GPT-2 is 5GB -- so it couldn't "win". Also, other techniques might get better as size increases.
In fairness, I don't have to do any of that to my Google Pixel either. It all just works great off the bat. I can if I want to, but I don't. I do appreciate being able to install my own fully open source web browser of choice (Firefox) and my own fully open source ad blocker of choice (uBlock) instead of being stuck using skins over Safari's engine.

Don’t have kids myself but I’ll point out that due to the natural social filtering of those around us whom we spend time with being more similar to ourselves than not, your perspective may be more valuable as a data-point .... though I suppose to settle this we’d need to look at how rigorous the study was, etc.

Thank you for your thoughtful response to my question :).

I think we need a better way to differentiate between the capabilities of the cable and port type. I like having a unified port, and I think it's ok that not all cables will do everything as a way to save cost, but it needs to be apparent to the consumer in easily identifiable manor.

e.g.

- USB-C

- USB-C-V (with video capabilities)

- USB-C-T3 and USB-C-T4 (with thunderbolt 3/4)
Well, strictly speaking, automation is a key factor.

If it's automated, it's always GDPR.

If it's not automated, it's GDPR under the condition that the data is part of a filing system.

So if you order your stone tablets alphabetically by their title, it's GDPR, but jumble a sufficiently large pile of stone tablets and you're in the clear.

In practice, this means that if you have a warehouse full of unordered boxes full of unordered forms, then somebody exercising their right to be forgotten cannot force you to go through every single box to see if there is data in there.

Conversely and frustratingly, if you have one gigantic folder of digital media, then you are technically required to actually go through that data, although I've heard of cases argued with authorities where this can be forgone in cases where it would be extremely uneconomical.

I'm still anxiously waiting for the first big decision on e-mail, for example. In large-scale corporate environments, good luck identifying every email containing personal data of a particular person, should that person ever exercise their right to be forgotten.

(Edit: no idea why you got downvoted, you raise an important point)

BuildTheRobots is right. If we're really feeling that callous, we might as well calculate the value to her of a life-year (disability-adjusted for old age, naturally) for an elderly pet and show that the expected disutility to failing out of her university is comparable to that for the other calamities you're saying would justify her behavior.

And if we're not in such a mood, we might as well recognize that she's more likely to get a wider audience and an acceptable solution by embarrassing both herself and the guilty parties here with a strong display of emotional distress.

/r/EqualAttraction seems to be it (I just searched for 'similar attractiveness' on reddit, was the third or fourth result). Now my problem is I don't know any of the celebrities they are naming, so I'll have to google around to see if I agree with the commenters.
Agreed. I've been on a macbook pro with USB-C only for about 4 years now, and I am still using a dock to provide 3 USB-A, a HDMI, and an ethernet port, plus power, and plus a dongle to run a USB headset adapter.

OK. So "RAII" means what I meant by RAII (just the constructor technique) plus the rest of the normal memory management approach (destructors). And if it's not stack allocated (or a member of a class that is), you don't get destructors automatically called. I get it.

The only thing I'm left confused about is "global memory segments". How does that fit in? If it's a global it's never destroyed, so you don't have to worry about it? Or did you mean something else?
"Universality" that involves many people finding that cables that look identical don't actually work the same way.

Interesting definition there.

Universality of physical plug, I guess?
There has been automation in factories, but the point is that the innovation hasn't continued, and that the automation seen in factories typically stays in factories, which require volume/scale. There have been "minor" incremental improvements over the years, but industrialized food production was heavily automated all the way back in the 50's. You simply cannot put a machine that pumps out 10,000 frozen pizzas an hour into a Domino's storefront, and when you scale it down, it becomes too costly, impractical, or the product quality is not the same as that desired. It's basically the "last mile" problem.

When we talk of burger-flipping robots replacing the McDonald's worker, the answer isn't "McDonald's is already highly automated", as they still have a huge number of employees doing manual labor at every store. There is no burger-flipping robot, and their factories featuring automation(as most factories have for decades) hasn't really changed the number of employees they need in each store.
Hourly, yeah, I mean You can split it up, and not be working the same job in the same hours. Perfectly legal and acceptable, albeit not healthy. So it's not fraud.

But Salary, That's a different animal. Yes there are 24 hours in a day, but if you're Salary you're a legal representative for that company and covered under many employment laws because of that, for all 24 hours. So - I have doubts as to whether having two salary job is legal, even if you're working 12-8 and 8-4.

There are many reasons someone may wish to remain anonymous on the internet. Sorry if my anonymity triggers you.

I didn't say you were against diversity, I said you created an inverse relationship between diversity and harmony. You could have had that whole discussion about optimizing for harmony without discussing diversity at all (there are many things that might affect your harmony including curriculum changes or standardized testing). The fact that you placed diversity in opposition to harmony is why I said what I said.

Perhaps it's just the fact that you're not a native english speaker, but the fact that you're now making assumptions about economics (who said anything about that?) and brought up diversity in the context of a comment about "undesirables" affecting your kids lead me to believe that you just don't like diversity.
oso | Developer Advocate | New York City (NYC) | Remote or Onsite

oso (backed by Sequoia) puts security in the hands of the makers. We're doing this by delivering security as code, or as Charity Majors (cofounder & CTO of Honeycomb) put it, "Consumer-quality developer tools" for security (https://twitter.com/mipsytipsy/status/1288326027001782273) – beginning with an open source policy engine for authorization.

We recently released oso into Developer Preview, and the feedback has been amazing. We are out to build a big, vibrant community of open source users, and we need to be proactive to achieve that goal. To that end, we are hiring our first Developer Advocate. This person will report to the cofounder/CTO and work closely with him, the cofounder/CEO, and the rest of the engineering team.

We are hiring folks who want to put security in the hands of fellow makers. We are building the product in Rust, which we think is both a good design choice for our use case and a fun choice for the team. The team members who join now will not only have a disproportionately large impact on the product and the community, but also on the culture and future of the company.

We are based in NYC and hiring folks remote or onsite.

To apply, please visit https://www.osohq.com/jobs/dev-advocate or email jobs [at] osohq [dot] com.
I doubt they even do a proper pentest evaluation, they just say "oh this site looks reputable" and slap it on.
Just wanted to add my voice and say that I agree with you fully: people walking around with the "everything is politics and politics is everything" chip on their shoulder are exhausting to have to be around. They typically come across as insufferably holier than thou and generally just make me not want to have to interact with them. Case in point the number of times I have had to listen to "you are on the wrong side of history" condescendingly being made as rebuke to something I have said dulls my interest in any further interaction.

Besides, engineering problems and the solutions to those problems bring enough variety of opinion that you would think people would be able to fulfill whatever need this new religion of politics brings. Engineering is challenging and rewarding on several different levels.

The press release suggested they chose Brazil and Germany as test markets and the logo wall appears to imply they grabbed ~10 to 15 news sources in each country.

Der Spiegel is about as obvious as a reasonable choice in a 15 item list as possible.

The bigger question is in the “timeline” feature how will different news sources be integrated. Aka news source 1 has one event on Jan 1, news source 2 has one on Jan 2, both news source 1 and 2 have one on Jan 3, all on the same topic....what do you show? You can’t show 15x every little development. And who makes that decision? And how? That piece seems controversial.
What is the friction? If competitor is cheaper, you click on competitor’s buttons.
It depends, though. In all likelihood it would end up thrown back on the consumer— "Did you use a licensed/approved/certified charger? Sounds like you need to take this up with whoever made the charger that fried our product."

It might help resolve certain really common cases like compatibility between the chargers and devices of the mainstream entities. I guess I'd argue that that should be happening on its own, but Nintendo definitely dropped the ball with releasing a USB-C product in 2017 that was interoperable with Apple and other name-brand chargers which had been in existence for two years previously at that point.

JAMStack seems to become more and more one of these terms without a clear definition:

> “From my perspective,” he said, “[it’s] a JAMstack website if it uses one of those modern components — like maybe it uses Hugo as a static site generator, [or] maybe it uses Contentful to manage the content, or maybe it uses Netlify to get deployed.”

At least to me, that reads a lot more open than what I got from the initial proposals of the term. Apparently a Github Pages blog is "JAMStack" now...

Maybe this depends on the locale, but in Houston 90% of the uber drivers that have driven me worked for Uber because of the flexibility.

It was a guy who just started an insurance company with his wife and they were taking turns ubering when they could to help pay the bills until their company got off the ground.

It was a wife who was saving up for a kitchen remodel she wanted.

Several people who were retired.

Several people with waxing/waning medical issues.

In my experience there weren't a lot of people who were using uber/lyft for their long-term income, which make sense because the pay isn't very high, there aren't any promotions, and many of the individuals who would be interested in a that type of job don't have a nice enough car or have other issues that prevent them from driving for Uber.

Anker generally keeps their old products around, but they don’t sell their gen 1 thunderbolt 3 dongle anymore. Too many problems.

I had two of them (they sent me a second because I was having problems). If you plugged the dongle into the wall but not a laptop, it would send the wrong voltage to the USB ports. I mostly keep it around to flash SD cards.
What bothers me is that every year we get new, lighter, cheaper, faster, building materials, every year we improve construction processes, every year we're building more and more floors in same period of time and yet still appartments and houses are getting more and more expensive despite of all these improvement's. Can someone pls explain me how's that possible? Am I overestimating improvements?
