I think he's saying that Zoom can record conversations. Not that they actually are.
Interesting and might help. I guess? Still strongly suggest going to the doctor if you get sinus infections a lot.

After _years_ of trouble I finally went to an ENT. Turns out a poorly-healed broken nose caused a 90% obstruction of a nostril. They fixed my nose, and my sinuses cleared up mostly.
That’s the problem: a million apps, but none of them are decent

I guess you are cutting straight to the chase and overlooking the fundamentals. I took a lot from the Well-Architected framework from AWS and applied in all my projects.

https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/well-architected/?wa-len...

Take a look at the security pillar with extra care. For the cloud I would suggest you take a basic practitioner exam, or at least a preparation course in a platform like whizlabs. There you would get a basic understanding of how networking is laid on the cloud.

For private, on-premises projects, it really comes down to what you have at hand. In this case maybe the Google SRE book would be good. You take good practices in maintaining a data center and apply the distilled knowledge to what makes sense to your infrastructure:

https://landing.google.com/sre/sre-book/toc/index.html

Read this book as in topics, not sequentially, coming back to the fundamentals when you feel lost, otherwise you might end up lost in technicalities that make little sense to your work.

Also take a look at the shared responsibility principle. There it is exposed what are the client and cloud provider responsibility. When you have a private on-premises project all you have to do is implement the entire responsibility stack that the cloud does for you.

What does it matter where they are based if their operations in the US are beholden to Chinese government coercion?

Golwalker admired the sense of the German nation and how they created a national spirit where only 50 years ago there were a few disparate states. Golwalker also admired the Jewish people for maintaining their culture, religion and language [1]

As to anti-semitism, the left in India including the Congress party has always supported every faction of the PLA including those who undertook terrorist actions against Israeli citizens and are committed to the destruction of the state of Israel. At the time of Israel's formation, the Congress party which ruled India casts India's vote in the UN against the creation of a state for displaced Jews in the Holy Land. Both Gandhi and Nehru were against Israel and in support of the Palestinians. The small detail of the recently concluded Holocaust did not factor into their political stance. The only Indian leaders to support Israel at that time were ..... Gowalkar and Savarkar [2].

The Congress party today continues it anti-semitism towards Israel by continuing to support organizations which carry out attacks on the Jewish state even when most of the Arab world is moving towards peace and trade with Israel.

> And the universe is pretty damn huge.

And that kind of hand-wavey statement seems to convince most people. Universe is hella-old, and really big. Ergo, incredibly rare stuff has happened basically infinitely many times. Life everywhere, etc.

Only…it's actually not that old, we have some idea how big it is (not that big, just lots of space between atoms), and thanks to computer science, we're pretty good at analyzing issues surrounding computation complexity.

And as it turns out, the DNA-to-protein pathway is much much much less likely that our initial hand waving made it seem.

I'm not saying it didn't happen, I'm saying with our current level of knowledge we have no idea how. The math based around being old and big doesn't work. So we need better math, more studies, etc. and less hand waving.
Pretty much all serious studies on this show that over the lifetime you easily beat ICE.

And only because the not so optimized yet supply lines is it even a question.

The thing is, you need to mine nickel/graphite once and then cycle it 5000 times. If you compare this to the equivalent driving distance in gas its not remotely close. Also, all of these batteries will be recycled, so it only needs to be mined once.

The credits he refers to are fuel efficiency standards that manufactures need to have across their fleet.
Same here. I thought it was starting to finally realize some of its potential in the second season and by the cliffhanger ending it was extremely promising for season 3. I think not only was season one intriguing, and season two utterly fascinating, but that it was really building momentum toward a fantastic season three. It's the absolute perfect example of a show that was damaged by its cancellation.
It does sound plausible, because I believe sleep apnea can get some help by playing the didgeridoo which is along the same lines.

Of course plausible edge cases might be the best clickbait, so yeah.
> And when you decide to leave your current company?

You apply at companies with remote roles. I haven't lived in SF though, and would never do so, so I can't speak to solving for timing the market there.
We talk about this in the "Relationships" section of our Series A guide (https://www.ycombinator.com/library/1s-relationships), but in short: introductions from other entrepreneurs and your existing seed investors that can't lead an A themselves (typically, if you're raising an A, you've raised previous rounds of funding).
> Why not?

Because a computer/smartphone is practically an organ, a brain extension. Letting other people read its content without limitations is like letting them read your actual memory and thoughts (including those you'd like to keep private between yourself and your partners of all the kinds - business, sex, whatever) and probably even plant a backdoor for spying on you in future (I don't know about the US TSA but Chinese border authorities are known to do so). I wouldn't feel comfortable about that.

> I don't really study terrorist methods.

What if I, occasionally, do? Out of pure curiosity. I believe I have googled and downloaded a lot of content which could be found suspicious although I hardly ever had time to read that so far, pure curiosity and information hoarding are my only motivation.
Help me with my launch on ProductHunt today!
Hey! The startup I've been working on, Shuffle, launched our public beta app on ProductHunt today. Would REALLY appreciate it if you could check it out and upvote it (bonus: drop a comment!):
Actually I’m annoyed now when a device comes with a charger. To the point where I say out loud, to myself, “oh for fu...”.

Nobody needs any more chargers, and if you do, they’re a fiver. It’s a preposterous waste that needs to stop.

(Totally separate from the issue of whether Apple is making money on this, which they undoubtedly are.)
My point is that the person who submitted this used a deeply misleading title.

It really has nothing to do with the NY Post story specifically, or about the overall "censorship or fact-checking?" story: if the only contribution to the overall story is a dishonest summary of some tweets, a summary that is designed to inflame rather than inform, then it deserves to be flagged on HN. This title only fans a flamewar.
> Why should they have dropped the price on the phone?

Because price gouging is immoral.

If Apple was on the margins financially and needed to raise prices to stay in business, that would be one thing. Apple, however, is replete with surplus assets and is taking hard-earned money from other peoples' pockets simply because it can.

There are an awful lot of far more economically productive uses the proceeds of Apple's defacto price increase could be put towards instead of further enriching Apple senior management and shareholders.
This doesn't seem right, how does a rod go from 1mm in diameter to 100mm in diameter under pressure? Also, how does one "wrap tightly"? The material would fracture under the stress of the first wrap.
VR would be nice on this.
What % of iphone users already have (multiple) charger bricks? I would intuit a large % of buyers already have multiple which personally I think gives more credit to in Apple's excuse
OP might be getting at the question of whether or not the representation of your state matters. Even though your mass is no longer in the configuration you expect perhaps the information still interacts in a way which allows you consciousness.

Unlikely, but one interpretation.
There's a few applications for this in places where you want to inconspicuously listen to music without appearing rude (having headphones in can be pretty damn rude).

But I feel like where this can really shine is hearing aids. These would sell like hotcakes with about 50% of the population.

Hearing aids nowadays generally just don't look too great. Which is why they tend to go the camouflage route instead.

Making them look pretty could go a long way.
Regardless of their reasoning, I don't mind it because I have a box filled with unused phone charges and headphones from my families phone purchases.

My only real concern is first time phone buyers. I think Apple stores (online or in person) should ask if you need headphones/wall charger when you purchase and just include a free set if you do.
No, but they frequently censor.
...and diversity programs
If you have hobby projects that show you are capable of self-directed learning and working, you will have no trouble getting hired. The hardest part in hiring is figuring out which people are genuinely interested in coding and will learn on their own vs the folks who took a course (even uni!) because they heard the salary is good and have no real interest. Programming in the real world is so much about self-directed learning that if you can demonstrate that, you go way up the resume pile. I have hired several times, and if I got a CV from someone like you, I would give it top priority.

Now that said, you might well need to look for unusual companies, but this is honestly not that hard. When I decided to go work for others (after 10 years freelancing), I applied literally to about 140 places on stack overflow careers, knowing that the vast majority were going to see "self-taught Canadian who only wants to work remotely half time" and throw it in the bin. But I only needed 1, and it was no problem finding that within a week and a half. I treated it like a sales gig: 20 applications a day for a bit over a week and I had interviews.

My tips for you as an adult: Be clear about what your value proposition is and what your constraints are, get your hobby work in a format you can show and be ready to talk about, and then fire out a boatload of applications clearing stating your position, regardless of what the job ad says. There are lots of small companies out there who would love a responsible, experienced-in-life adult as a part time junior coder, and very frequently the "needs" on the job add are bendable. It's really a numbers game of finding the place for whom your constraints are a good match with their needs. I was totally self taught, started at age 30 after only hobby hacking, and now 16 years later, I'm able to work part-time, from home, and earn a very comfortable salary.
That is a rather childish spiteful and envious logic masquerading as virtue. It is essentially saying "Because they have more than me (I want it and they have it therefore they stole it), it is fair that both of us will be hit by a train?"

Regardless of the views on fairness (the very definition is so solipsistic that the Just World hypothesis means that they can rationalize anything bad as happening because the victims clearly deserved it.) it makes the entire matter moot because both are dead.

Eternal and robber barron are is also both bad assumptions. It assumes that those with more neccessarily have stolen it and produce nothing. Stealing and production aren't mutually exclusive either. If someone actually dominates resource consumption without any production "prememium" to justify it then there is always something to gain by killing them and taking their stuff. If said "eternal robber barron" actually turns out to have been a net positive from say their lengthy experience in managing considerable holdings any bandit or revolutionary will taste their winnings turning to ashes in their mouth.

It is a morally awkward lesson but very grounded in the real world as even when the defeated actually was an oppressor instead of just looked upon with envy the new owners who never ran one before will find running the "old machine" whether a farm, factory, oil well, or mine or isn't as simple as they thought - let alone an entire country. Production soon crashes and on top of that are the market effects. Unsurprisingly property owners don't want to trade with those who are still is stained in blood with seized property who declares it all righteous. Would you show up on a cannibal warlord's doorstep to buy a used car from him? No because he might eat you and add your junker to sell.
Early on, through the early 2000's, I'd say yes. ftp:// links were often posted on web sites. There was some expectation that clicking those links worked and would download a file. These days? Why bother...
Have you reached out to benefits brokers? I've found that they're usually easier to get in touch with.
Where am I saying that? I have a specific criticism, that package management is unnecessary complexity that introduces more problems and limitations than it solves. It has nothing to do with being easy.

> but it comes across as an ignorant comment given the well-known economics

What the fuck does economics have to do with it?

> and especially in the context of a conversation about someone who is unwilling to contribute or at least build their own software.

I do both of those things. Your condescending conclusion otherwise is emblematic of my problems with Linux Desktop as a community.
Phones do not ship charged, and I’m sure that the need for a charger will be prominently advertised both online and in store.

> - Compatibility with international character sets (UTF-8) for data exchange

This is all supported with the current version of the OS (AmigaOS 4), however, due to no market share, only select devices are supported (the situation is like Linux (was), but much more extreme: printers (non-postscript) and WiFi cards, especially).

It is other things, where the system did not age well: no memory protection and no multi user support.

However, I do not want to place the Amiga as a viable solution for today's use. I just wanted to address the comment, I replied to, which was a bit too 'absolute' in tone for my taste. I did not find the criticism to be justified. Currently there is a hardware scene, that builds FPGA systems, that are fully compatible and meant to be run as stand alone, or as add-in systems and which can cope with most modern tasks, albeit CPU and GPU power is a limit, of course.
When was having support for JavaScript really ever criteria for being a web browser?

Long time ago there was no JavaScript and later it was still possible to browse Internet with JS disabled.

JavaScript is something that clients and content producers wanted, but is only necessary to realistically use web because content producers decide their content should not be accessible without JavaScript running in the browser.

I, personally, still use browser to access FTP resources because I only use them read only and because it is convenient to browse them the same way as similar resources but using HTTP.

I don't know why you are being downvoted, I think HN's flagging system is another way we are being censored.

Why Twilio Acquired Segment
I've had a Rift for 3 years (not a Rift-S). I've used a Quest. I bought an Index in August because of this FB account crap but ending up selling it 2 days later.

I'm not a fan of the Index. First problem, it has horrible black levels. Everything looks like you're in a layer of fog compared to the Rift. Maybe if you've never used a Rift before you won't notice but it was shockingly bad for me.

The headphones are utter crap. I don't get whoever thought headphones that hover 1/2 inch away from your ears would work. Take whatever headphones you have now that you're listening to music on and pull them 1/2 inch away for each ear. The sound goes down, it sounds tinny, less full, bases are missing, etc. The Index sounded exactly like that. Some friends said you have to get them perfectly lined up but if that's true the moment you move your head suddenly in some game they're no longer going to be aligned.

This also means the sound leaks into the room far more than it would with on ear headphones. It's not going to be loud but it is going to be annoying for anyone within a room if they aren't making some louder noise.

Next up, Steam VR is just not as good as Oculus Connect (or whatever Oculus's home screen system is called). In part because Oculus has built in "pull up your desktop and/or multiple windows" at anytime in anytime game and pin them to say up. Apparently there's a 3rd party app that will provide this for Index/Vive but I use that feature all the time. Inside a game want to look up a walkthru just pin in there in my view.

Now for some things that no one will admit to but I will...

The Index Controllers didn't feel as good to me as Rift Controllers. I get they have fanciers sensors. I get they grip your hands. But, probably the #1 use for VR is porn. Controllers that require 2 hands to put on are not good for things that require one had to be free.

I have lots of friends in the industry, I see none of them using an Index and plenty of complaints.

As for Quest/Quest 2, even if there wasn't the FB issue it's like choosing an iPhone instead of a PS5. iPhone has tons of great games but it doesn't have PS5 level games. Similarly Quest has tons of great games, but it doesn't have PC level VR games and it will never have any porn games being locked up by Facebook. (and even if it did, do you really want FB knowing which porn games you're playing?)

I'm praying the HP Reverb G2 gets good reviews and solves most of those issues. It's apparently a month or 2 from shipping so I'm crossing my fingers I can get rid of this Rift.

FWIW, my employer probably also wouldn't like me commenting on imminent legal issues that risked affecting their bottom line, but they don't mind me talking about much else politically speaking.

This is a twist on the famous Upton Sinclair quote. Google has everything to gain by extending their "live at work" strategy to political conversations, until those political conversations affect them.
FaceID gave access to my phone to a malicious house guest of a guest (boyfriend of sister who was unreasonably convinced of my disapproving of him, self fulfilling in this case ) who unlocked my phone using my face while I slept and even managed to authorize expenditure on my wallet.
Except it doesn't happen in the ocean. There isn't flooded forests in the ocean. Trees take a long time to decay, can be a hundred years in an aerobic environment, but 2-3 times longer in an anaerobic environment.
I think the use case for WebDAV as an opt-in HTTP extension for managing files on a web server is different from FTP-in-browsers which I understand to be mainly FTP downloads rather than asset uploads.

I guess I am just too cheap to pony up for an unlimited plan. I never stream video over the cellular connection, and rarely stream audio. I don’t see this changing unless unlimited plans get cheaper. I currently have fiber to the home for less than $70/month, and cannot imagine giving that up for any kind of wireless solution.
It's only canceled too soon if the main plot arc isn't resolved, which does happen with some regularity.

I am very annoyed with shows dragging on endlessly though. I very much like Babylon 5 for precisely this reason: it told the story it intended to, and when the audience asked for more content they spun it off into other shows/movies.

In general, I would say that 5 seasons is a good maximum, and that you better have a good reason for going longer (e.g. adapting a book series to TV, where each book is a season).
Typically the cost to manufacture goes down over time. You seem to be implying that it would have gone up. Is there a reason it would have?
Are you asking if we can bump the existing magnetic field dynamos into stability? It's an interesting idea but given the size and power of earth's natural field, I'm pretty sure that the math would work out to more energy than all of earth's resources could provide or something like that. You'd be literally manipulating the core of the earth.
Apple will come out with an "enhanced" charger for $100. Then update all phones to slow charge anything that is not the "enhanced" charger. Then repeat again in 3 to 5 years.

For 15 years I bought nothing but Apple products and then kicked the habit. My bank account appreciates no longer having that addiction. Now that I have a clear head I can see the many ways they just suck more money from the Apple fans.
If this plugin gets and traction either directly or through its feature set incorporated in some other plugins I hope we can convince Amazon and other cloud vendors to support it.
Cross-sending is called FXP in video and is(was?) used extensively by all broadcasters, TV channels, etc. So much that it's a must-have functionality for any storage system in this domain.
