Meta-conspiracy-theory: the 5G conspiracy theories were spread deliberately with the precise intention of making the truth look like just another crazy conspiracy theory.

(I don't think that's very likely in this case, but I bet there are actual examples out there of conspiracy theories being deliberately seeded as a way to discredit potential real criticisms.)
I have sumbitted a link to the primary source stating that the US president is positive for coronavirus. It got flagged and removed as well. At first I had the same reaction like you but I do understand HN tries to stir clear of US politics to avoid needless flamewars, and even though are posts are not political in nature they still prefer to moderate these borderline posts because let's be honest they would lead to stupid flamewars anyway.

FLIF was superseded by FUIF and then by JPEG XL, but it hasn't been fully integrated. JPEG XL has parallel decode and uses MAANS entropy encoding instead of MANIAC, which results is slightly less compression for some situations (but faster decode). That said, I certainly agree that JPEG XL is already very impressive and hopefully the next majorly supported image format.
As an open source maintainer, and from what I've seen in general, there's absolutely no problem with reporting a bug! Do you mind me asking why you feel like adding that disclaimer? Is it because you don't want to seem demanding? What is the goal of "just report that the bug exists"?

The main/only major problem I've seen with bug reports is when it's actually user code, so if you can show why you are certain that it's the library's code that is buggy that's best. If you can prove it with a code snippet, perfect. If you can point to a specific place of code and explain why it doesn't work, perfect. Or just explain exactly what happened. TBH, as long as you are just not be like "my code doesn't work fix it" you should be mostly fine.

> Note: exception if the package is marked as e.g. "unmaintained" or such

> Note: there might be some truly awful OSS maintainers, and some are infamous for it (e.g. Linus); but in my experience it's very very rare to find a negative reaction to a helpful PR.
I feel you dude, I have the same problem with content about dealing with procrastination.
It might be a nice to have a place where people can file low-effort bug reports, or perhaps "symptom reports", where there's no expectation that a maintainer will respond or even look at them.

Then they could be treated rather like automated crash reports: you could mine them to see if a problem is common, or if someone reports a strange problem you might be able to see whether anyone else had seen it and look for common factors.

Seems hard to make it work in practice without it turning into a place where people would just rant. Maybe if you make the reports readable only by the project's maintainers?

I think this is a pretty good response. My only issue with it is:

"The overwhelming majority of content that people see on Facebook is not polarizing or even political—it’s everyday content from people’s friends and family."

When I used FB I didn't find it polarizing or political but I did find I couldn't see content from people I knew. Other pages and crap overtook it and filled my feed. It was essentially useless to me.

I don't think FB is evil.. I think they are just about competent. Everything from them has been crappy. Remember when they spammed emails, chat was terrible, the apps were terrible, the notification icons didn't work on the website, FB messenger didn't work well.. etc, etc. Some things have been improved now but their talent is pretty lacking for a big tech company.

I think this is a question that doesn't have a well defined answer. Most likely raw hardware cost is smaller than consumer price, which is smaller than what the consumer price would have been if the manufacturer weren't able to get extra profit by selling your privacy and/or attention. So who's getting the money from selling you to Facebook depends on what you think the "right" price without that would have been, and there's always a wide range of possible prices for any given product.

I'm not sure why being on Grindr is being seen here as a blackmail risk.

If you are visible on Grindr, you have made a kind of public testimony.

So, you have reduced your blackmail risk - since you're already at least somewhat prepared for this information to be public.
Open bug reports, I can't see that as a problem. If it doesn't seem well researched, you can leave it be or ask for better confirmation. Otherwise it helps you write better software.

Pull requests and patches are even better. Someone has researched the problem and attempted a solution. You can review that and see how it fits into your bigger picture.

There's two little diseases in OSS.

1. Loud, bullying complainers who attempt to monopolize the communication channels, spamming mailing lists and chat rooms about their problems and refusing help with workarounds, etc. These people are usually mediocre programmers or non-programmers.

2. Apathetic maintainers who may be working on little features they care about and not worrying about the quality of the project as a whole. I remember the experience of patching an upstream project to the one I was working on and I could not, for the life of me, get the upstream project to care that they had a bug that made their software look bad. They were actively maintaining the project but I suppose they weren't focusing on that area. That's a real turn-off to helping them out in the future and leads to forks.
I take concerta, 18mg, and it works wonders. The only small negative is the its life is a little too long... even if I take it at 7am, I find I have difficulty getting to sleep sometimes up till 3am... and then my whole sleep schedule gets shifted and it’s damn difficult to get it back to a proper rhythm.

That aside, I _so_ agree with grandparent post about the negative stigma associated with medication for adhd. I’m so angry at society, parents, everyone for having done this to me in my early years — if only I had started earlier instead of in my mid-20s.

It appears so.
Growing up I was perscribed ritalin, however I stopped taking it within a few months because my middle-school brain was not enjoying the side-effects (mostly drowsiness). Now I'm perscribed Adderall and it works great. It can be annoying because every college student under the sun is taking adderall to cram last minute but it's a different drug when you actually need it to function. For most people Adderall just keeps them awake and hyper-focused so they can do whatever they need to get done, regardless of the hours it takes them. For someone who has ADHD, it really just brings us to what that baseline is for most people.

I can focus on my work all day with no medication if I'm doing something that I find personally interesting. However, when I have a week's worth of online coursework and boring bookkeeping to do it's impossible to get more than 5 minutes done without staring out the window, putting something on in the background, and twiddling my thumbs. I can still buckle down and get work done without it, but it's so much more mentally draining to do a week of work without any medication than if I were just to take what the doctor recommends. YMMV obviously, I just wanted to suggest something for people like me who have been 'proudly' living with ADHD un-medicated.
I would also add that paying fake ransoms is easy way to steal from company treasury.
what do you take now. im also an adult with adhd, i did take ritalin before but concerta is the only thing available to me right now. i dont think its especially effective to me, but i take only 36mg per day. and its better then not taking anything.
I wonder if that loss of taste is at least a good way of quitting something like sugary foods
I'm not too sure about that because if that were true the online shopping experiences in these richer markets in Europe would be better than India which is quite demonstratively not the case. Hence my assertion about correlation with age of the population.

Deciding how to phrase contributions is a surprisingly tricky problem, and in fact I think that the way a contribution is written can (to some degree) demonstrate the author's level of understanding and appreciation of the project and community's time commitments.

Some projects have extremely high issue volume, use their own automation/triage, and prefer very terse communication -- and in those cases it may make sense to include only the minimal details required.

In other cases a hobby or community-building project (for example) might prefer more informal and friendly communication.

Either way, the author's phrasing isn't the only factor that matters in each situation. The relationship also depends on the project/community responding effectively.

We're all human, we all make mistakes, and English is not everyone's first language, so a well-run project should afford for those (while also being cautious not to get completely sidetracked dealing with noise).
This is pretty cool. From a UX standpoint, my first intuition was to use ls to list out the directories and to use tab to autocomplete, neither of which worked. The animation is cool but it's a little slow and might be frustrating if I was trying to read the resume for real to get info rather than just playing around with the demo.

Still really cool though. I made a prototype resume myself recently[0], great to see more of these creative ways of showing off experience.

About: making software for 30+ years on a few continents.. the interesting part is the people. And languages and friendships made in the process. Been everything up to CTO, usually many hats at the same time (last few years - CTO +architect +coder +methodologist +mentor, in startup. Mostly because of the last role). Have my own python course and work-style, mentored a few teams, turned a few people into good programmers-and-persons, consulted a few companies on agile and cultural-health..

So, looking for mentoring a team or more, 20-25h/week, about programming and life, with me there.. or them here (taken outside comfort zone, people do they best.. or worst). Something like playing trainer, within the team and the project.. coding/designing is only the ink of software, made by people, for people.

You are effectively still supporting the Chrome monoculture. It’s like people “fighting capitalism” while wearing 2nd-hand Nikes: somebody already paid for those Nikes, and you still really want to show you have Nikes, reinforcing the perception of Nike as a valuable and powerful brand people should wear.

Might be wrong, but from online discussions it seems to me Xecuter's SXOS goes a bit farther than merely being a rooting tool, it also seems to include some functionality that ties to Nintendo's proprietary code & keys, which would be a big no-no if it's indeed the case. In that sense they're probably not the same thing as open-source Atmosphere and homebrew ecosystem around it.

Apart from this, I just couldn't help but notice the overall negativity in the comments. It's thinly veiled in excuses, like opportunity cost for law enforcement or whatever, but it's there.

Maybe the real concern here is that we simply don't agree with the law. DMCA was enacted 10 years before Spotify started business. If I hazard a guess many of the people here in HN, and out there in your neighbourhood were downloading mp3's back then. These laws were not made by popular support. They weren't made by the people, or for the people. It seems to me, majority of the people here and outside haven't really internalized IP laws, and would rather live in a world without them if they could.

I think it's fine if our moral compasses don't align with the law. It's one thing to obey the law, and another thing to actually agree with it. No amount of pressure from anti-piracy groups can turn a law into a holy commandment. So we don't have to beat around the bush. If you can't symphatize with the massively profitable huge gaming company and if your symphaties lie elsewhere, maybe it's time to discuss why reality, laws and government don't reflect your will.
> There is a ton of open source code that is crap

The good thing of open source is that people pick the best available, or at least some that is "good enough" when there are many choices.

The bad thing of proprietary code is that you paid for that, so you are stuck with it. Throwing it again and redoing it has a high cost, staying with it has a (high?) cost. But if you want custom code or very specific code, it's going to be one-off.

So yes, in general you can say that open source has better quality, because the best rise to the top, while in proprietary code it is what it is.
> The overwhelming majority of content that people see on Facebook is not polarizing or even political—it’s everyday content from people’s friends and family

This seems like it's totally dependent on the politicalness of your friends and family. The past few months, many of my friends and family have been overtly political on facebook, and I ended up seeing it. I don't think that's easily avoided in a contentious election season.

I made an attempt at stopping using facebook about 3 weeks ago, and have been successful so far. Then I just learned another family member joined and I'd like to connect. With my family spread out so far, it's one of the few ways most of us can stay connected. So... I'll probably be back in the FB world small doses in the next week.

That said, I didn't find leaving all that liberating. Some people talk of some sort of new found freedom after stopping using facebook, but I didn't feel that way. I just have a bit of extra time during the week, which I've mostly filled with phone calls to other people, so there's probably not a huge net win from a time perspective. There may be some benefits re: privacy/data collection, but I've been on it for ... 11 years at this point. I'm not sure a few weeks off makes much of a difference yet. :)
The goal of filing a bug is to help the project.

I've had cases where I've filed a report saying something like "if I enable both A and B, the log messages disappear", and the maintainer has responded with "Why do you need both A and B? Could you use A and C instead?".

That's a waste of time for both of us. If I want to ask someone about the merits of B vs C I'll find somewhere better than a bug tracker.

I honestly don't have the time and energy to chase a non-functioning entity that I have no effective way of forcing to do their job.

I do donate generously to noyb.eu, which is using those donations to hire full-time people to do exactly that, plus trigger lawsuits where necessary.

I did talk to people working DPAs though, and they seem obsessed with the irrelevant small stuff (particularly keeping people from easily communicating via e-mail is their pet peeve, ignoring the improvements in transport security that happened in the past two decades since they developed their policies), instead of dealing with what affects everyone.

That's just ritalin. If you think it would be more effective to take a straight dose of 10mg than to use the time release mechanism, I think you could achieve this by getting the drug out of the pills you already have.

I am also using concerta because it is the only form of ritalin legal in my country. I don't really notice a difference compared to taking ritalin the other way.

Many years ago I read the preface to the behemoth of a book that is Infinite Jest by DFW.

I don't remember the wording of the preface, but I recall it arguing that the sheer size of the book could be regarded both as a cultural experience as well as a mental exercise.

The author of the preface argued that when (or perhaps if) you finished the book you would feel like you've just run a marathon. You would be highly fit, reading wise. Nothing would phase you.

This was probably compounded in my teenage head by the fact that the only quote I've heard from the author beforehand was:

"I consume libraries. I wear out spines and ROM-drives. I do things like get in a taxi and say, 'The library, and step on it.'"

It sounded like a complete opposite of myself at the time, but I did want to learn that ability. And
I liked that preface a lot. It kept me going at it month after month on busy train rides, with the promise of some transcendent reward at the end.

There are famous footnotes in that book spanning several pages in tiny print. The amount of mental effort it took to read the thing was extraordinary for someone like me at the time. I often had to backtrack several pages to perform the context switch from a mini-novel footnote back to the main storyline.

This was many years ago now, and I have slipped far behind on my reading fitness. But I still carry with me the realization that I can't expect to be fit if I don't train hard.

Now, ADD is a whole nother beast. Sicknesses often require medical attention and this should not be smoothed over. Still, I think there's an interesting discussion to be had regarding reading fitness in the era of information. Maybe this is a widely discussed thing and I'm just not hearing it, but it seems obvious that we slip further toward obesity without training. Surely something similar happens with our ability to focus without training?
> I'm very worried about how my kids will be able to handle it in their teens.

The biggest factor after education would be the ability to be non conformist. That requires you have some leverage in the group. If you don't, you will quickly become target for exclusion and bullying.

In school, it's not easy to avoid bad apples and many parents are/will be negligent. So you will have few students using social media and trying to influence others into it even if the current situation changes.

Teens also want to prove themselves and the dynamics of social media provides cheap validation. You need intrinsic motivation about something to fight it as well as support or acknowledgement from adults.

I was surprised this is a pdf, but now wonder if they did that to reduce tracking of readership and sharing.

If so, that’s a positive thing for them. A pdf doesn’t have the Facebook like tracking and shadow tracking. They can still see some traffic from the raw http gets, but it skips the ubiquitous Facebook analytics that the documentary talks about.
