If my friend tells me to check out a song or an album, I type in the first word or two of that song or album into spotify and I'm listening to it instantly, whether I'm on my phone or my computer.

Do you really think there's no difference there? If you get a text from a friend saying check out this song and you're out and about on your phone, are you really saying that somehow downloading an mp3 to your phone is as easy as spotify?

The T2 in a portable stays on even when the Intel CPU and macOS are shutdown, so "persistence" is pretty easy (the T2 can go very very low power).

Once you own the T2 you can just disable secure boot and modify macOS anyway (like injecting EFI apps/drivers into the EFI System Partition).

You're confusing a few things. Because SF (until recently) has disproportionately been a sellers market, leases are written such that they benefit the landlord.

Buyout clauses are not symmetric and are uncommon in SF.

In the context you described, both the tenant and the landlord have incentives: the landlord wants to pay you to break the lease so they can charge higher prices, the tenant might want to accept the money. The landlord doesn't have to have any clause in the lease whatsoever to make this offer because you aren't obligated to accept it.

On the other hand, in the current market the landlord has no incentive to accept an offer that is less than what they feel like they will lose by you leaving. Since the market has collapsed, they'll lose quite a bit.

I don't see the math adding up to making money by breaking out of the lease in SF - unless the prices fall considerably more.

> Chinese characters (known as hanzi in Chinese, hanja in Korean, kanji in Japanese) have had a huge effect on the two languages similar to the effect of the Greco-Latin vocabulary present in English

This is simply misleading. Japan was the target of massive immigration from China. Modern Japanese people are of Chinese descent ("yayoi"), with aboriginal DNA. So it is not simply the case a writing system having an influential effect. Foreigners brought their language, mixed it with the local language and evolved a new one out of that.

>Learning Chinese is like learning Latin before learning a Romance language.

>The added benefit is that Chinese isn’t a dead language.

I wouldn't go that far. It's more like learning Greek and hearing many of the same root words, sounds, etymology, etc. in English.

An Italian speaker can listen to Latin and grok maybe 25%. A Japanese speaker can listen to Chinese and get maybe 2%, max.

Words like "library" use the same Chinese letters, and have very similar pronunciations, but that's about the extent.

I'd say the best way to learn would be Japanese, Korean, then Chinese (what I did).

Firebase Auth Vulnerability
Recently government of my country stated that "LGBT aren't people, they are an ideology" and used that as an argument to ban LGBT demonstrations and introduce local law in some regions where they have majority to create so called "LGBT-free zones" where "propagation of LGBT ideology" is banned or at least cannot have institutional support (like other forms of political activity enjoys).

This is obviously not as bad (because AI isn't people (yet?)), but it follows a similar pattern of calling something "an ideology" to show it in a bad light and draw absurd conclusions.

If you look that hard everything is an ideology. Stop playing with definitions and just say what you wanted to say in the first place.

Hey, wanted to let you know that I took your good advice and changed the pricing from $7.99/month to $59.99/year.
This is cheaper for the customer, easier to deal with invoices for both parties, leads to less churn and overall a better experience for everyone. The only drawback is that you have to pay $59.99 to try it, where before you only had to pay $7.99, but there's still the 30 days money-back, so maybe it's fine.

AI is a blanket term or a bucket term. It can mean Artificial General Intelligence - AGI or Artificial Narrow Intelligence - ANI. In my experience and opinion, as soon as something is well defined it becomes ANI - Vision systems, Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, Neural Networks - it loses the name "AI" and gets its own specific name.

How AI is talked about depends on the audience. Nowadays, no one really thinks of rule based engines or scripts as AI, neither as ANI or AGI, but back in the day people thought maybe you could just have enough rules to replicate intelligence. So old ANI is just "an algorithm"

To researchers, as soon as an approach is well defined it becomes ANI; at least so far. In future there may be an approach to AI that becomes AGI, but ANI is not considered AI to most researchers.

For industry, AI generally denotes a handful of ANI approaches - Machine Learning and Neural Nets. If you say "AI" in a corporate environment, this is what people will think of.
I generally try to phrase "legacy" as "something that is surprisingly expensive to maintain and improve".

A Mercedes limousine from the 1930s might still drive, and be reliable and stable. Finding parts for it probably requires custom-making them, and that's why I would consider it a legacy car.

Seems like a bunch of tips for people who are just starting out with web development, to not miss the most obvious problems. How this post is currently on the top of the front page will forever be a question for me.

This is when being the guy knowing a few database tricks is fun.

We had one reporting query that ran for 13 hours or so, in a normal web request. Not very successful, but it tried its best. Running this through explain while thinking of daloks revealed some dependent subqueries. Those are the devil in mysql because they are evaluated per row in the outer query. That takes a lot of time very quickly. Eventually we wrangjangled the dependency into a terrifying group by such that the dependent query could be precomputed and the outer query just joins with the result. Boom, runtime down to 2 minutes.

In another case everyone panicked ... until one of my dudes added an index - which took about a day - and slashed runtimes from 18 hour to 12 minutes. Learning to optimize queries on your RDBMS of choice is very powerful.

> [0] Yeah, in Dutch, there are two articles: "de" which is gendered, and "het" which isn't. Compare to French "le" and "la", which are both gendered, one male and one female, and there's no neural article. In Dutch there is, but the gendered article doesn't care whether it's male or female; it works for both and doesn't actually care about gender, just that it's there. So it's gendered in a neutral way. Wrap your head around that.

That's a curious way to present it. "het" is gendered, it corresponds to the neuter gender. There is nothing neutral about it, that's just a (bad) name. In Russian for example, they call it the middle gender. Dutch nouns take one of two genders (three in some Belgian dialects), just like in French.

Both Latin and Proto-Germanic had three genders, which correspond to what we would now call male, female and neuter. Over the span of centuries Latin merged male and neuter into one, leaving French with male/female, whereas in the Germanic languages usually male and female merged into a common gender, leaving common/neuter. But apart from that, it's exactly the same phenomenon.

I'm not familiar enough with CDCs to compare my ideas to that concept. I'm still working on trying to articulate what's rattling around in my head as a result of the past three years of trying to get involved locally after getting myself off the street.

I'm in the largest town in my county and it's the largest city along the Pacific Coast of Washington and a shopping hub for the region. Any towns in the region I outlined as my core target market that are larger than Aberdeen are along what I think of as "the backside" of the region -- the coasts of the Salish Sea and the I-5 corridor.

So most development in the region is smaller than this town and a lot are unincorporated communities. That means in many cases the target audience is likely to be some local business person or resident activist/concerned citizen.

I hope to help people think about what they would like to see going forward and empower them to take concrete steps, regardless of their budget because some info and technical resources will be available for free.

I left a comment elsewhere on HN today where I said in part that a lot of small businesses see getting a big business as a client gets viewed by a lot of small businesses as if it is the small business equivalent of "winning the lottery" when, in reality, big businesses routinely take advantage of small businesses and can outright kill them. Small and poor communities routinely seem to similarly think that attracting monied individuals from elsewhere is highly desirable, a means to salvation and has no down side. The reality is monied people from elsewhere moving into a poor town has a big downside and should be handled with care.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24764566

So I think small communities need to be trying to enhance income capacity for existing locals first and foremost rather than hoping to attract an influx of monied individuals. "Remember the Golden Rule: He who has the good makes the rules."

The need to actually view the coming deluge of incoming wealthy "climate change refugees" as a potential disaster for current existing locals and seek to protect their own interests.

It’s weird that you compare AI to the human brain. I think the goal is here in the long term is to surpass the mere human brain. For that reason it’s stupid to try and model it at all. Maybe some future neural architecture will make the human brain look like a computer built using vacuum tubes.

She's brave enough to risk walking her dog. She should stay home, and she's curtailed a lot of other activities she used to participate in (like hanging out at the local cafe), but she personally draws the line at walking the dog. It's a calculated risk. Our neighbor is sparsely populated, the streets are wide and there are lawns, people are good about walking in the street to pass her, we live near the ocean so there's a constant breeze blowing in fresh clean air, and so on.

This guy is letting his mind play tricks on him and then using that to argue that quarantine isn't important to prevent the spread of the global pandemic that is still killing people.
The reason for my assumption is the explicit statement:

Subject object verb is the least of your problems if you're learning Japanese. Moreover, English supports that order: it's just not the canonical one. So it is not that alien. "Yoda speak" appears in sentences like "In god we trust".

Japanese also deviates from its canonical order at times, by the way. For instance, sometimes the topic is extraposed to the end of the sentence, even after a supposedly sentence-ending particle like よ. E.g. "ばかだよ私は". Sometimes that can be because the speaker realizes mid-sentence that it requires a topic to be clear, and you can tell when this is the case when the topic is preceded by a pause. But it has a nuance of its own, so it is used deliberately, even in writing.

Re: When any quantum system interacts with it, then it becomes entangled with the result of that measurement, branching it into a new universe. That's my understanding of the many-worlds theory.

This is a case of a simple theory that indeed models the mystery well. However, it seems "wasteful" in that it would branch into gazillion trees of reality. In Occam's Razor, does "simplicity" include quantity of "stuff" needed? Because sometimes the brute force algorithm/model is the "simplest" if we ignore quantity of stuff and time, such as bubble-sort. Bubble-sort is one of the simplest sorting algorithms known, but is inefficient from a time and resource standpoint.

If there are "free" dimensions to spare out there, then the "wasteful" multi-verse model may not really be wasteful. We humans are used to thinking in terms of economic trade-offs, and a model that uses up large quantities of space/time rubs our instincts wrong.

If true, the theory means that in some universe somewhere I'm a billionaire who married a supermodel.

It will be even worse in the decade to come, thanks to sustained efforts to undermine the national census.

i learned hangul characters by reading street signs while travelling through south korea. most signs were both in hangul and latin characters.

then i found a keyboard typing practice program where i patched the letter images and replaced them with the appropriate hangul character parts, to practice typing.

this skill came in handy when i needed to write down some korean words when hearing them.
I concur, but using and knowing a reasonable subset is enough to be productive.

Rust has its own problems and pitfalls as well, and I doubt that people who don't understand pass-by value vs pass-by reference and its implications will be happy with fighting the compiler over ownership issues.

Implementing a doubly linked list comes to mind - trivial in C++ - a brain twister in Rust and apologists will hide behind statements like "they're almost always the wrong choice anyway" or they're "just used pedagogically" [1].

A cynic could interpret that as Stockholm Syndrome as well.
