I got an MCAD once because my employer was offering it for free. This was so they could secure a "partner" status and get a license discount.

That's mostly why people bothered with it.

It was completely no use whatsoever. In fact looking back the contents were stupid and dangerous.
It's a question of trust not anger.
Ask HN: What is your favorite ergonomic chair/desk
I'm in the market for a new chair and would also like to pair it with a desk. I'm open to trying a standing desk as long as it can alternate between the sitting and standing positions.

What are your favorite models and why? Price is not much of a factor, but I am located in the EU.

Thanks HN!
Same here! What a surprise. And it looks a final product, not a pre production sample.
Private tab? Do you mean private window? Or is there some other feature/extension?

The temporary containers extension is creating a temporary container with each newly opened tab. It uses same container for tabs opened from existing tabs.
The world can't wait for this process to take several years. Nor can it gamble on US partisanship in antitrust matters. By the time any antitrust process can have results, the internet economy is destroyed and just serves FAANG, even more than it does already. Maybe the EU is waiting until after US elections, but they absolutely shouldn't put any hope in another administration (who are, after all, partly responsible for this monopolistic situation, and taking money from Google). Just as the digital tax initiative is going nowhere, so will this antitrust process.
Good stuff, but let's not forget that these are cherrypicked examples, and even if Tesla can show 10,000 of these examples, there could be 1 million other examples/scenarios at which they didn't think about and the software isn't optimized for them.

It's going to take a lot of trial and error (and a lot of time) to iron out all the kinks. I still believe that in the meantime, it's irresponsible of Musk/Tesla to market this as a "full self-driving" system or anything of the sort.

There is no doubt in mind my that people will continue to die by allowing this system to "fully self-drive them home", and also that Tesla will continue to get legal cover for it, because the lawyers ensured to use all the necessary footnotes in the multi-page ToS that nobody ever reads.

For instance, they'll be adding things like:

You can enable self-driving mode, but:

- you can never take your hands off the wheel

- you can never close your eyes

- you can never look at your phone

- etc, etc

Those footnotes will by default imply that the system isn't really fully self-driving, so marketing it as such should be illegal as false advertising, especially since it puts people's lives in danger.

Humans are not robots, so why expect them to act like robots? You give humans a 99% self-driving system, they are going to die, because they won't be able to "look out for that 1% scenario in which they can have an accident". It's crazy to think that it would work like that.
Why do you think they are angry? You don’t think those people have lost trust in Amazon?
I would never have believed it, but cancer changes you. And I can totally relate to the experience, while I wnet through chemo, it was an easy one. Seeing all the others, successfully going through it felt kind of like cheating to me, e.g. I never lost my hair or a lot of weight. Other had to be brouht to the brink of death in order to survive.

One thing I realized was, that I was less afraid of death itself, but rather the process of dying which can be a rather lengthy and ugly thing. Worst thing to happen, eve wirse than the initial diagnosis, was the moment a couple of months after I inished chemo. Some hemorroids started to act up again, and it was a quite realistic scenario that the cancer was back. Damn, I was destroyed by that. The initial diagnosis didn#t realy surprise me, for some reason I kind of expected that after all the tests they did. The potential second one caught me completely off guard, it took me a couple of months to recover from that. looking back, I'd say that was the worst part of the whole thing.
> "Linux is 15+M lines of code"

But how much of it is the actual OS versus device drivers and other "extensions" of the main kernel? I assume there is somewhere a core that everything plugs into that has more or less the same functionality as what was done in the 9000 lines of the original Unix v6 code and only uses a fraction of all of the code of the kernel.
I once had an endoscopy without any sedatives or anesthesia and that really sucked. The doc stuck a large tube down my throat and had me gagging for what felt like an eternity. After the procedure I needed a few minutes to wipe the tears that started forming from my eyes and gain some composure. This was done in Poland. If a colonoscopy is anything like that then not sure I'd want to be doing them regularly.
lubricant and cleanser for your organs? sounds legit.
Free software doesn't mean for free. It means being able to audit it to see if it has no backdoors.
I researched this a while back, and it turns out that while they can't hear tones (if you play minimal pairs in isolation, they won't be able to hear the difference), they still understand people and reproduce them correctly when they speak. They can also be trained to recognize recognize the difference. There's really no such thing as tone deafness.

Tone deafness is when you sing something badly, people make fun of you, and you stop trying to sing. Not an option when you speak a tonal language, instead you just learn pitch without realizing you're learning pitch, just operating from "feelings" and what "sounds right," which is of course based on an enormous amount of lifetime feedback.

It's like how actual blindsight (when the eyes or their connections to the brain are actually damaged or destroyed) is unrecognized echolocation. We are not aware of our own conscious experience, or the processes we go through to reach some of then conclusions we reach.
You don't need civilization for this to be unfeasible. People tend to underestimate how much nomadic people know about things like animal behaviors, medical use of natural substances or about geography, especially with regard to the change of seasons. Arguably, it was never possible to know the entirety of human knowledge.
This is going to take care of my biggest gripe with Multi-Account Containers; it leaks cookies to the default container if you open the site management list because it looks up favicons each time. I just tested Containerise and multi-container cookie jars, it does not leak cookies with this.
Finally, painless container management!

Edoscopies are totally different beast. Colonscopies are much easier, also on the patients. They are defenitely nothing to be afraid of.
I'm sorry ... I could not find any English language article on any reliable/reputable media reporting on this matter after searching extensively. Therefore I decided it was best to submit this reputable AFP one in German that could be translated easily using Google translate or whatever.

I thought it was quite important to report on it despite the absence of English media coverage.

I apologize for the title being wrong in this case but some other German media press articles have used the word backdoor instead of Trojan. I should have used the word Trojan instead of Backdoor in relation to this particular article and apologize for the mistake. But I'm not really sure which is worse to be honest... and I also suppose they don't want the suspects aware of the Trojan being on their phone. Which leaves many wondering if they don't mean that they want the Trojans at tech companies instead (which then would become backdoors).
Does this include the anesthesia given to us at the dentist? The one they give you in a shot to numb the tooth. I couldn't live without that.

I had the same problem. My website has no https. How about yours?
My point is that even if it is 10% efficient, which is only 5 times more than your estimate， you have 4 months. Even if it is 2% efficient, you get ALMOST a month.

Re: accelerating for many months at 1G is definitely bad physics, not only are you relativistic, you start getting into the kind of speeds where a minor meteorites will wipeout your ship. 1 gram meteorite with a relative velocity of 0.5c has 1.4e13 J of kinetic energy = 3.5 kton of TNT, so a small nuke.
If I may offer a non-American's view on this: the article devotes most of its effort to the conflict in the 1850s between "Yankees" (northern, educated, industrious) and "Southrons" (less educated, militaristic, pro-slavery, belief in extracting wealth through coerced physical labour of others).

> "This is what a healthy building culture looks like. The Southrons did not have it, and partially lost their war because of it. America grew strong in their loss: the Yankee culture of building came out of the war triumphant, and those who won the war would go on to build the country we live in today."

(This reads like Yankee propaganda, but it's not historically inaccurate)

However, the Southrons never went away. Somehow they built statues to their defeated leaders. And it seems - again, as an outsider - that so many of the US's current problems stem from the south rising again and replacing "builder" culture with supremacist, anti-science culture.

And even more specifically, this means the US moves a lot more stuff by rail freight than in Europe, where the rail freight industry is sickly and dying.
This is not true, many of those companies have cheap mass-market products.
Why is it supplanted? Is it a fork? I still see commits on GoDaddy's repository.

Nutrtional science is the most garbage natural science at this moment.

Simple proof: no one knows what the best diet is, hundreds of scientists and skin-in-the-game athlethes are bickering and trying different things out but no-one still knows anything.

No one knows that the best foods are for longevity and performance. Such a thing would need a full-generational study. You cannot just "I tried a diet for 1 month and X and Y happened".

1 month is nothing. At least 6 months are needed, 2 years in major changes can still be happening.

Also god forbid you trust the offical food pyramid, so many of these "stupid bro science" advices can have a lot more truth to them than the "offical advices" because they were tested via skin-in-the-game.
I think people are angry because Google is really perceived to have been more trustworthy before than they are today. Hence there's a betrayal factor.

Amazon is like CPS: everybody's known you cannot trust them to properly handle and care for a plastic cactus and they were told this when they were 5 year old.
That's SO cool! While everybody is busy wasting their life on a super centralized internet, it's heartwarming to know that there are still ideas, people and money that goes towards interesting, free and perhaps even a bit idealistic projects.

And we are talking about tiny numbers: 10,000 €. But they can go a long way.

Have you spent any time at all in a developing country?

They're so high on hope and change it's inspiring. It's the opposite to TFA - everyone is living better than their parents did, the progress is visible between generations (between decades even). They know they still have problems, but they trust in their ability to deal with them like they're dealing with everything else.
The saying goes: "Plans are useless but Planning is invaluable" - and it goes well with "No business plan survives first contact with the customers" (which was adapted from IIRC Churchil's "No battle plan survives first contact with the enemy", even though customers shouldn't in general be regarded as enemies)
I guess this depends on your definition of a miracle. In a previous job, I had only been there a few weeks after moving across country to take this job. It was a large enough company that I still didn't know what the entire company did but recognized a few people from different departments just from water cooler chats. I had been becoming familiar with some new software and was staying late as I didn't really have anything else to do. Taking a stroll through the building partly out of curiosity to see who else was still in the building I found a group that was staying late because of a next day deadline. Curiosity got me involved in what they were struggling to do. It just so happened that the software I had been playing with was the perfect solve to this groups problem. Ultimately, the deadline was met at the bottom of the 9th with 2 outs and no runners on the bases. Sometimes, things just work out where the right info is available and the people that can use that info all come together to pull off what looks like a miracle when it was just damn good luck of very fortunate timing.

We didn't save any lives that day. We didn't change the direction of medical advice. However, face was saved and the people that were dreading having to tell the client the deadline was not going to be met would call it a miracle. And since it happened after hours while we worked deep into the night, would that not also qualify as an overnight miracle?
Alternatively just chug some WD40.
ftfy: "there hasn't been any major wars since 1945 in countries where we care about death toll."
Fuck, that sucks. I hope you have someone to talk to, because that constant enxiety can wear you down. In my case it was a very good friend, close family had enough on their hands already to cope with.
Terrible take; basically flinging poop at the agricultural southern economy without mentioning, you know, how the North kind of burned most of it down.

He quotes a nice description of the American skilled working class of the 1800s, then somehow forgets about those people: you know -the people who actually built everything. The genius of our skilled working class machinist types is now wasted in coming up with new workman's comp schemes rather than building things, because you shipped most of his jobs and his future prosperity overseas. This is pretty much all of it in a nutshell. In Germany those people are building things. In America, it's difficult to make a living building things, so the brightest of them go into IT or whatever. Scumbag economists make up excuses for why improving some scam figure like the overall GDP is good for the 50 year old machinist whose job has been shipped to China, and who has to go to work as a Walmart greeter or janitor in a heroin clinic. It's not good for him, his family and community, or the country.

And it's not good for my blood pressure reading ding dongs like this talking about the South versus the North versus Karen. Talk about the human capital we've destroyed with our imbecile looter pyramid scheme economic theories. Everyone gabbles on about training for "STEM jobs" -the ones involving matter actually count if you want to become a society of builders.
As someone with extensive experience fasting, some thoughts.

> My goal is to get into Ketosis before the water fast begins.

This is great, it's much easier to start a fast when you're in ketosis.

> I keep my water intake high during the week, attempting to drink between 4-7 litres of water per day.

This is way WAY too much water, especially if you're drinking anything on top of it. Shoot for 2.5 to 3.5 liters a day maximum. If you do this for any prolonged period of time, or multiple weeks in a row, you're going to have issues.

> This is why the fasting once per week doesn't work for me. I think it is just repetitive torture every week with minimal fat burning and quite a disruption to normal socializing.

Yeah, that's because you're doing it wrong. I'm on week 4 of 5/2 (fasting/eating) and it's sustainable. So long as I don't eat pure junk on my 2 days, it's not even that bad for the first 24 hours. I have one friend who maintained this schedule for a year and a half, and another who's been at 96+ hour fasts for over a year now.

> Cooking whilst mid-fast is torture

I didn't find that to be the case. I cooked for my girlfriend plenty on my 60 day fast. Wasn't that big of a deal. Didn't start until after the 2nd week though, so that may have something to do with it. I guess I can see it on shorter fasts if you're not adapted though.

> "Threw some salt in my water, feel a fair bit better after that might do this once a day."

Yeah... this individual and I need to have a talk about that. This guy says he's 75kg, drinking 4 to 7kg of water a day, for 3 to 5 days, without _ANY_ salt to speak of. The average human is 55 to 60% water by weight. Do you have any idea how hard that is on your kidneys? Or what it does to your salinity levels?
> Perl is extinct in comparison.

Which is a good example that the decrease in use can go a lot faster than you think. Perl was widely used in 2000, and thought to be on par with Python. Similarly Visual Basic which nobody seems to remember any more.

Also, COBOL is simply used because it is uneconomical to rewrite those old programs, not because it is a good language to write new stuff in. But the heavy dependency of Python programs on libraries hosted across the web means that obsolescence can happen a lot faster today; a COBOL program is almost totally self-contained in comparison.
I feel obligated to point out that there is a notable lack of eyeless developers in Linux kernel developer community, even after many, many years of development.
I am not worried that Amazon would shut down all of AWS any time soon.

Can you honestly say it would be a complete surprise, however, if Google announced an EOL for GCP?
Well, it's a 4 km distance and according to the schedule of the train it takes 6 minutes between both stations, so it would be an average of 40 km/h (well, you will understand that it is relative as the train has to accelerate and decelerate). Also, some of the portion is in a tunnel, I don't know if this can affect in any way the network.
You misunderstand, it is indeed an issue of their chargeback rate as a platform - not isolated to particular merchants.

Having high rates has significant consequences - leading to fines from card schemes, lower authorisation rates from issuers, higher interchange costs as it harms negotiations for custom deals with issuers.

Even quite small numbers in the enormous pond of PayPal can have serious impacts when it's well optimised.

Also keep in mind, where it is possible to do this kind of thing, it can very rapidly grow to a huge problem when fraudulent end users learn they can do it.
So, why bring this up? Why must everything be headed to disaster? Why is all good news always countered with a negative forecast of doom? I seek to understand.
Switzerland doesn't have any high speed rail services, defined conventionally. All trains in Switzerland are pretty slow, but it's a small country so it rarely matters.

Also, Swiss trains are pretty expensive. You don't notice because wages are high, but really, everything in this country is very expensive compared to neighbouring countries. In most countries inter-city rail is used by commuters so governments impose price caps, if there is any political pressure to lower prices here I've never seen it.
If Germany's economy is one of the best, why is their median net wealth lower than the US and why hasn't the German economy net expanded since 2007-2008? The US median adult wealth figure is now 85% higher than Germany's figure, and the US figure is nothing spectacular.

If Germany's labor position is so great, why are their workers so relatively poor? People constantly applaud Germany for their supposedly great labor protections and unions. So where's the wealth?

Germany's median wealth per adult is below that of Greece. Let that sink in for a moment. It's 1/2 that of South Korea. It's nearly 1/3 that of France.

For 2019 Germany's GDP was $3.84 trillion. In 2008 it was $3.73 trillion. Inflation adjusted, Germany's economy contracted by at least 1/4 in a mere 11 years. That's a vanishing economy, and that's all pre-Covid.

A decade plus with zero net growth is one of the best economies in the world? No it's not, it's a contracting economy with no wealth creation occurring and an impending assault by China on their high value manufacturing.

Germany is standing in a very bad spot. Whether they realize that yet or not is another matter.

Here's the next 20 years for the German economy: China will take a giant chunk out of their high value manufacturing export machine. The average German will have to work a lot more hours just to stand still, while they attempt to retire with very little savings at the median ($35k isn't going to cut it). The industrial hollowing out that Germany will suffer, is one that the US has already gone through, and it's a brutal thing for a society to endure, especially starting from a position of a terrible median wealth figure and an economy that is contracting persistently.

Those super low hours per week that they've been enjoying? They've been trading on their future and haven't been generating enough wealth to sustain against what's coming for them.
Yes, this is what some people seem to be missing here. Much of the Linux code implements drivers or subsystems that you might not be interested in to begin with (such as the network packet filter). Kernel code is highly modular. The code that implements trivial things like context switching is still much more complex than in an '80s Unix, but it is not millions of lines.
No, that's local, not general anesthesia.
