But not no-connectivity access. Not everyone has connectivity all the time.

Also people with bad connectivity who don't want to watch a spinning buffering circle every minute.
Do the developers thing about these things once, or do the operations people think about them continuously, and for all time?
This is the same irrational mentality used to defend businesses or the wealthy from doing immoral or harmful things by arguing only that the behavior is legal.
Thanks, it's way less cool when I write spectrogram instead of spectrograph. My mistake on that part.

If you use those tools, it's really straight forward process of using the tools. I didn't know about Audacity until I had spent most of my time figuring out ffmpeg/ffplay. It was an amateur effort, but I've done a lot of security analysis.
It doesn't have to be huge, I don't think you're going to get a ton of people to move based on this financial incentive alone. A lot of people might have friends, family, or other ties to the region, and this is just what they need to convince them to make the switch. 15k isn't much, but it will cover a smaller move and closing costs pretty well for a lot of people. This is especially true if you're already in the Indiana/Wisconsin/Ohio area.

They're close to having a train that runs between Ann Arbor and Detroit. They're discussing a train between East Lansing and Detroit.

The state is behind on public transportation and in Detroit when they had the money the counties couldn't agree and now that they do there's no money.

But Michigan's beauty cannot be matched by any other state except possibly California.
Statistically minorities are also undervalued in terms of investment, FWIW. People are less likely to invest in your company if you're a minority. (Some will even refuse to provide you business because you're a minority.)

A long time ago, I wrote and maintained a fairly used Userscript plugin to scrape and download YouTube videos. Let me tell you -- without constant updates (which I've gotten complacent of by using `pip install --upgrade` with youtube-dl), I have forgotten just how much of a hassle it is to constantly fix the HTML parser used to identify and generate download URLs. The reality is, any front-end source code change on YouTube would potentially break the script, sometimes necessitating complete re-write of the parsing scheme. That is all to say, I hope you've set aside ample time and coffee for this hobby...
Journalists have an obligation to protect their sources, which prevents many stories from being independently verified. However they can be verified by other news outlets, who have their own sources. The "losers and suckers" story was independently verified by NYT, WaPo, and AP. But the NYPost has not been verified by anyone, nor they did seek verification, nor did they even ask Biden for comment, because they know the story is bullshit.

The "double standard" idea makes my blood boil, because it casts basic facts in partisan terms. Twitter fact-checked Trump tweets, but not Biden tweets. But that's not a double standard; it's a single standard, and it just so happens that Biden does not tweet outright lies such as "California sends a ballot to anyone living in the state."

Twitter clearly does not want to be in this position and the right-wing misinformation machine is exploiting that aggressively. The NYPost story got a huge Streisand-effect boost. It's impossible to give Twitter good advice today.

I don't think so, no. It's wrong to equivocate between groups "following their incentives". Facebook could have chosen not pursue algorithm-based advertising as a business model. The news companies didn't have the option of ignoring Facebook (and Google) by about 2014 or 2015 (news companies also didn't conduct unregulated psychological tests or commit fraud to push a video-first model). I don't really blame Facebook for playing the game, but if you play, you also accept the consequences when society gets sick of your shit.

It's hardly persecution to insist that American businesses stop doing gross harm to the American people. Your personal anecdote is largely irrelevant compared to Facebook's earnings report - lots of people still use these platforms and they will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. It's unlikely that these companies will pivot their business model in the absence of oversight. I've stopped using it too, but we absolutely should create market rules to deal with the obvious abuses that have occurred so they don't crop up again.

Complaints about the size or make up of the court, the electoral college vs popular vote, or really any other issue based on the current state of affairs would have significantly more weight if the people complaining weren't complete hypocrites.

Case in point, the electoral college was touted as the best thing since sliced bread prior to the 2016 election by Democrats because they were confident in the "blue wall" of the rust belt. After Trump sprayed WD-40 on in it and loosened up those voters, Democrats cried foul in unison solely because they lost.

If Clinton had been elected in 2016, she'd have gotten at least two SCOTUS picks and they'd all be loving the electoral college. But she didn't so here we are. Elections have consequences.

What is it particularly about open source that it cannot attract designers? Can’t they have similar skin in the game as engineers. I’m sure it would look good on a designers portfolio if they did the design/branding for a project like org mode.

That whole "by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate" part in Article II Section 2 that the Republicans refused to follow.
> The law only cares if the tool was "primarily designed" or "marketed" or "has only limited non-infringing purpose."

The first two elements have a mens rea implication behind them: you have to demonstrate the intent of the developers. That RIAA's strongest evidence of intent is buried in a unit test, and this seeming intent flies against the evidence in the far more prominent README that is discussing its unsuitability for infringing content. Furthermore, they can also demonstrate from their own practice in history that they refuse pull requests and close issues were people are clearly trying to use it only for infringing use cases.

Yes Youtube does have copy protection for downloads and in fact the reason why certain specific music videos were chosen to be part of youtube-dl's test suite is to test the circumvention of Youtube's copy protections! It's literally in the documentation of youtube-dl's test suite what Youtube's mechanisms are along with how to circumvent them.
I think RealClearPolitics is a great example of solid reporting - I avoided it (along with the intercept and 538 which is weirdly now sort of a news site) in the example above since I'm not certain how sustainable they are in the long run - they may exist because the internet being here means some pretty nice balanced news sources are eventually bound to appear... but corporations have a way of eating media sources that don't say nice things about them. I do really hope that RCP and a lot of the other independent media (even the highly left-slanted ones like TYT) manage to survive and thrive - but I think aggregated news is a thing that has value and I think that maybe highly opinionated commentary of news (like you'd see on twitter/facebook) also has value since it allows for more room for advocacy of ideas.
There are a significant portion of people who do work that can be remote. I know we're on HN where we assume everyone is in the top 1-5% of earners (nationally) and is an engineer/cto/ceo/founder/gururockstarninja but these offers seem much more aimed at the clerical office worker type or some other lower paid work. I doubt many engineers take these offers up. The ones I read about the people who took up the Tulsa ones didn't sound like engineers.

I can only speak about Clojure, since it’s the only lisp I know. After just a few days of playing with it though, I started to see the parentheses as a warm and friendly hug, wrapping everything inside of them in its own scope that doesn’t affect its parents. Reading JavaScript, my main driver, became harder in comparison.

function doSomething(a, b) {/* something! */}

is okay, since the “function” keyword is a simple indicator, and it’s clear that it’s a function declaration. The kids these days often use

const doSomething = (a, b) => {/* whatever */}

and that is awful for readability. It’s much harder to scan for function definitions amidst value declarations. I’m nearly 20 chars in before I even know it’s a function. Worse yet is something like

const doSomething = (a, b) => b => “some closure”;

This threatens to stretch my capability to understand the context I’m in when reading it. “b” is just kinda floating there amongst the infixed arrows, and I have to read on to know it’s an argument, and I have to run through the calculation of what “b” is every time. Compare:

(defn do-something [a b] (fn [b] “some clojure”))

I can count the parens, there is no implicit scoping of the function body. My editor can too, which means I often don’t have to. It’s obvious that it returns a function. This part is Clojure-specific, but I also have strong guarantees that the returned function cannot pull the rug out from under me with whatever I pass to it by arbitrarily mutating some argument.

To me at least, (fn-name args) was both more readable and makes more sense than fnName(args) after a few days, and I never learned a lisp until I was 37. Maybe I just found a style preference later in life, marking me as a lisp survivor. Maybe we’ve just been doing it wrong for decades and have grown accustomed to it. I can’t say. But the power of the language itself coupled with the code editing features it enables makes me think that the whole field has been on the wrong track, or maybe even off the rails, for decades.

The JS code I write now is more flexible, more resilient, more testable, and more maintainable as a result of learning Clojure. I doubt anyone can say the opposite: that a C-style language improved their understanding of lisp. (Not addressing you with this part, dear poster, since your gripe is rooted in the syntax.)

[NaN] “kids these days“ is just friendly ribbing. I’ve got the grey beard now, so I‘m free to play the part. Language maintainers tend to be older, and we cause more problems.

Based on our trips to SW Michigan, there's a few good places, but not many. Silver Beach Pizza in St. Joseph, Wheatberry in Buchanan, Infusco Coffee Roasters in Bridgman (for coffee), and Bit of Swiss Bakery in Stevensville were the highlights for us.

Several good places just over the border in Michigan City or South Bend, though.

I'm surprised they're listing an Applebee's. At least along Lake Michigan, there aren't too many places that are mainstream chains, restaurants or stores. Can't even find a Walgreens or CVS most places.
And, we're back to the magical shifting definition.

Nope. That article states the the ssd was 'naked' which leads me to believe they removed the sticker off it. Those stickers/labels are use to dissipate heat from the controller, so you, you know, don't need a heatsink. They act as a heatsink.

I flew into Seoul last year thinking I could easily book a rail trip to Busan (international flight arrivals are always uncertain so I didn't want to pre-book train tickets and risk missing my train due to a delayed flight).

Given that the Seoul-Busan route is the most popular and frequent plus transportation in Korea is amazing, I figured surely there'd be an abundance of connectivity options between its two largest cities, so I didn't think I'd have any trouble getting on a train. But nooo, they'd sold out for the evening. [1]

I had to spend the night in Seoul and try again the next day. Train tickets do sell out in every country, not just in America.

[1] they did have a standing-only (i.e no seat) ticket on a 5-hour local train. I had luggage, was jetlagged, so there was no way I would have been able to stay standing for a 5-hour journey
Covid condemns value investing to worst run in two centuries
Masks and social distancing are not sustainable forever. A lot of people are going to abandon them regardless of whether a vaccine is available, so any safe vaccine would be a win even if effectiveness is low. Seasonal influenza vaccines are sometimes as little as 20% effective when the circulating strains don't match predictions, but even 20% is a lot better than nothing.
How do y'all think she would rule on a case involving antitrust enforcement against large tech companies? Say, if the DOJ's new antitrust case against Google reaches the Supreme Court. Who would ACB and the conservative majority on the bench in general side with?
My sister travelled on the train between the two cities and had a nice experience. So I wanted to go by train. I had a ticket, which I bought online, but I missed the train, and next one was sold out. But if I do go between the cities again, I will probably fly. But taking a car would be interesting too.

There are definitely differences between cultures when it comes to this, in particular when it includes raising children. Being German I actually got a lot of confused looks when we had American friends over and they noticed that young kids over here just go grab their bike, drive off and play in the nearby forest all day. They seemed totally shocked that ten year olds just run off and play in nature.
Unless he works for a public org where salaries are public information (public universities, usually government jobs, etc). It should be difficult to find this information. Private companies already like to keep a tight seal on what they pay so I’m surprised a simple background check can reveal such sensitive information.
I hope investors put more money in India in medtech, biotech, Pharma and Agritech instead of this current trend of investing in worthless consumer startups. India is much more stronger in biotech and Pharma than IT which is primarily a outsourcing work based on human labour cost arbitrage.

Indian eco-system is very complex and many of the figures are made up for investment by startups without any means of verification. Given cost of acquiring users in India is very very low, getting large users to show traction even for a mediocre or fake product is easy.

India leads the IT outsourcing industry which offer manpower as a product to support a legacy system or software on which most developers in developed nations don’t want to work as there isn’t a big future in it. Most famous Indian IT companies are mostly Human Resource Management company optimised for cost arbitrage between the salary in India vs US (and other developed places). Most IT firms processes are made around mandays (already a gender biased term), to make sure salary paid is 1/5th to 1/6th of the overall revenue this person generates from customer.

Except few, most startups are get rich quick schemes in India in which founder takes the money and there isn’t any recourse for investors given the rule of law takes ages to have results examples like Oyo and BYJU are everywhere.
