You have to be ok with casual sex. I'm mostly not.

First I don't want to catch something (aids, chlamydia, herpes, ...) so a few minutes of sex doesn't seem worth the risk. I know, at least according to popular media that puts me in the minority. If my attitude is common it's probably not easy to spot.

Second, I don't want to hurt people. I know they exist but 9 times out of 10 people I meet want a serious relationship and would be hurt if we slept together than then I called it quits. I wouldn't lie to them directly but they'd feel like I was lying to them if I say, slept with them 2-3 times and then stopped seeing them. So, I basically don't get into it in the first place unless I believe that I'd like to be with them longer term. Of those people that could be more casual usually issue 1 comes up. They sleep around so they are more likely to have something and plus I don't want my heart broken.

Third, I'm also someone who just wants one person not just for sex but for love and companionship so my attitude is bad when meeting / looking for people. My attitude is "can I see myself being with this person long term" instead of "would it be fun to be with this person for the moment". That answer is quite often "no, I can't see myself being with this person long term". I don't think that's that strange of a thought. A stereotype of a story is the person that doesn't think this way and has lots of failed relationships for choosing superficial qualities of attractiveness as their reason for getting into a relationship. But, at least they had a relationship.

Anyway, the sum of those 3 things and possibly some bad luck being in jobs which have few members of the opposite sex and friends that have few friends of the opposite sex means I haven't had a relationship for ~17 years. I hope every day that will change, I frequent 5 dating sites. I have matches. But getting something started seems really hard. I would do much better if I went to church (I'm atheist) or did some activity where I got to know people over time and become friends first. I've gone to several meetups but if they are truly about something I care about they usually have few members of the opposite sex. I've been to a few otherwise but it's been the same bad luck I guess. No one I'm interested in or no one that shows interest.
Where do you live? It sounds like this is a regional thing in the NE? I live in the PNW and in my 50 years I’ve never heard anyone use route in place of I-.
Please elaborate on those "limitations".

I really haven't seen all that much XML in Java recently outside of legacy applications... there's libraries for loading config data from JSON, YAML, etc etc.
I almost always prefer the desktop app over the web client because my browser is so polluted with random tabs nowadays. Also google chrome has programmed me to feel that web clients will be slower and resource intensive (even though this probably isn't always the case).
I'm actually out of the loop on the lunch thing. Is California making companies treat that as income now?
Then explain the first graph.
I wonder if there are any big companies that require HDCP and some sort of "trustworthy USB devices only" system.
Not exactly on topic, but TFA talks about communication for companies of 500+ employees. I can not think of a company of this size and yet has only one product/service. Why do we need so many people?

I've always wondered what would happen if every company/corporation had a hard cap on its size and could not have more than 150 (a.k.a Dunbar's number) of people. Forget subsidiaries, conglomerates, etc. No individual could sit on the board of more than one incorporated entity, and any entity could not exert control over any other.

What would happen when a company started reaching this size? Would it start to focus on increasing productivity of the existing employees, or would they outsource absolutely everything that is not part of their core profit center and keep itself as lean as possible? How many layers of management would it have? What would happen with investment in R&D? Would this lead to companies being ultra-competitive for local markets or would competing companies form cartels and balkanize its customers in order to guarantee mutual survival?

Would tech companies still be able to follow the strategy of "grow first, find out how to make money later." My guess is they wouldn't, but would that be a bad thing?

Maybe there just aren't that many designers that use Org Mode.
I agree it's a good indicator, only given it isn't exclusive to a restricted platform (or expensive platform, therefore making it a status symbol). I think Signal does this right, 1. by supporting all major platforms, 2. by showing standard SMS as "dull grey" and allowing you to choose your own color for a contact (otherwise having a random color) when the conversation is Signal enhanced. On that note, I have hopes that Signal can become The One True Messenger after they iron out a few more quirks.
How hard would the peeling be? I'd worry about ripping off components or even board traces if I had to peel something like that off it.
If I would research this, I would look at historical evidence of how free the peasantry class have been in relation to landowners, and how the society was set up under feudalism, the extent of serfdom, and see how strong that correlation is with current right-to-roam regulations.
I’ma Brazilian Jiu jitsu player. The sport has a great deal of depth to technique and the physical exertion can be quite intense/rewarding; however, I do believe that the physical touch (and implicit trust therein) are an important aspect as well. It’s aggressive, but neither violent or sexual. Most of my training partners could severely injure me at any time, but I expose myself physically and trust them not to.
Markdown plus some other useful stuff:

+ really good keyboard shortcuts
+ better header structure
+ better tables
+ calendar
+ interactive multi-language literate programming environment
+ some other stuff that I don't use
That photo is insta-delete in my book at any resolution. I think it's just a bad scene all together but also nothing is sharp at any distance from the camera and colors look washed.
What is the solution then? Concrete case and hope it doesn't leak?
Fika sounds exactly like having a smoko (smoke break) in Australia
I think your argument makes sense. It's a version of the stolen property laws... Even if you didn't know it was stolen, you have no right to keep it.
Not specifically spreadsheets, but the org table code is also used in the feature-mode for writing gherkin tests. One of the powerful aspects of cucumber tests is the tables, and having the org tables code in the editor means that the feature mode didn't have to do anything to support tables that auto size and align and add columns etc.
I swam so much in Santa Monica and never even knew about the dumping that the EPA had won a lawsuit for... Horrifying.
If it's not ready for evaluation then HN is probably your best bet since it would stay within the circle of devs. Twitter/Reddit/FB won't get you the open source contributors and critique you're looking for.
Doubletree Hotels gets this. They use cookies as food rewards. If you complain about something, you get a cookie.
Increased volatility of the underlying always increases option prices.

Moreover, a higher standard deviation decreases the compounded returns of a log normal distribution, not decreases it. This is called volatility drag, and is closesly related to the AM-GM inequality: the geometric and arithmetic means of a series are only equal if all terms are identical. If this is not true, an arithmetic average will always be greater.
Let me know if you get in! I've been in Tulsa Remote since April. It's by far the most fleshed out of these programs: a couple of hundred people have been accepted over the last couple of years, sixty in the last month or so. Much more of a focus on community vs just cash, as there are fun events. I'm working on a comparison site for these relocation incentive programs called https://payyoutomove.com. They appear similar but greatly differ in payout stipulations.
Key thing here is just to not accept salary scaling- there is no reason for remote workers to subsidize SF rents by accepting lower wages.
If nothing else, watching Apple will give you an idea of what every other company is going to do for the next few years.
Revolutionizing Super Smash Bros Melee with Slippi [video]
Eastern Wyoming is harsh, windy and exactly like you say. The I-80 corridor is a wind tunnel.

Cheyenne is actually a nice town in my opinion and an hour from Denver. It might not be right for a lot of HN people but I like the town. The surrounding country is just rolling windy plains though.

North Central and Western parts of Wyoming however are gorgeous. I particularly like Thermopolis where GF's family is from. It's a tiny little town deep in a canyon on the wind and bighorn rivers. Hot springs abound. It's probably not the right place for young single techies but it's great country and great fishing. I found the people friendly enough but not overly.
60 years ago maybe, even in the 90s I ran the streets like a tiny hooligan without a care as long as I was back at home by the time dark came we were all good as long as I maintained my grades and chores. I know lots of parent like that around here, I'm sure the media would like you to think all parents are helicoptering in the USA but they really aren't.
This blog post is obviously directed at Figma (and perhaps to the less successful InVision Studio).

I used Sketch for many years and now I work with a team that uses Figma.

I agree with all the blog post arguments.
While Figma is an impressive engineering effort for a web app, the performance differences are huge.

But, what is “killing” Sketch and other native apps is the sharing use case. Figma is still ahead of Sketch Cloud for sharing and collaboration.

The Figma rest API also helps to improve the design/dev workflow. I did tools for Sketch and Figma to extract icons into React components. While the Sketch CLI helps, the Figma API is portable and easier to use — handling stdout and files vs doing simple Rest calls.

I see the same trend with other native apps. I love Keynote and I hate Google Slides with all my heart (who thought that was a good idea to use the scroll gesture to move to the next slide in the editor!?). But, the last week I had to collaborate in a presentation and Keynote collab crashed all the time... it felt like going back to the 2000: sharing files with version numbers and notes to not overlap our work. Suddenly the sharing use case became so painful, that I was more open to work in a limited tool like GSlides.

BTW: I love macOS native apps, but if Apple doesn’t fix the collaboration use case, the browser apps are going to eat them... like Google Docs did with Word.
So Zingermanns has several restaurants. The Deli is overrated IMO, but the Roadhouse, Roadshow, and Miss Kim's are really great.
1) everyone I know is on iMessage,

So you're privileged in an entirely privileged bubble? If iPhone is only 52% of the USA and 20% of the world it seems almost statistically impossible that all of your friends or family can use iMessage.
I live in China as a foreigner, I didn't lock my apartment for 3 years. In the first year I didn't even have a key since my flatmate lost it. I can literally walk in my neighbor's flat if I accidentally exit on the wrong floor. All their doors are wide open 24/7. Sometimes, small kids playing in the corridor open my door (the only reason I might lock the door hehe). Delivery guys leave all the boxes outside the front door. People leave their macbooks and bags unattended in coffee shops.

Surveillance surely plays a role in all this, the question is how much. How much is surveillance vs. the upbringing of an individual.
I lucked into getting one such tv for free, it works quite decently. It only has one hdmi port and the speakers are quite mediocre on it (rear firing). The color settings built into it are different things like "shopping mall, outside, train terminal, etc.". All of its downsides are mitigated by a good hdmi av reciever and speakers, it runs hdcp just fine, no problems for me.
What? I visited family there. They have big cities there.
Very much doubtful. AMD is seriously on fire, and unless they can pull some magic I don't see that happening.
This is a really awful place to show off a product if you don't want honest feedback. If I were launching something new, the post above yours is exactly the kind of potential customer's perspective I'd hope to get.
It's entirely possible that it's correct. Was just surprised not to see that city on the list, but I also didn't go to other cities on the list.
I believe at least some part of the story must be true, because nothing else seems to justify the seemingly-coordinated push-back against the story and anyone who didn't want to just accept the claims of falsification. I can't recall seeing that kind of reaction to any story before or since.

e: I take it back, the unanimous denials of PRISM "direct access" felt very similarly-coordinated to the Big Hack denials: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/jwherrman/direct-access...
Heterosexual male here. I think the last time I touched anyone was when I hugged my mom when she visited me 3 months ago, and before that I don't think I touched anyone for the 6 months since I broke up with my gf.

After finishing college I moved to basically the middle of nowhere for my tech job without knowing anyone in the area. Wasn't proactive enough making friends, and because of my gf at the time I didn't seek out any women. We broke up right as the pandemic started, which may have been the worst possible time.

I'm not sure if it's because it's been so long that I touched anyone, but I don't get touch deprived as often as I would have expected. Sure there are times occasionally where I feel really lonely, but so far it's been pretty easy to brush that off. However, taking care of my mental health has been nearly a full time job. I make sure to exercise daily, I picked up guitar and mountain biking, and I blocked all social media I see as toxic (reddit, youtube, facebook. HN is okay in moderation). I my sleep schedule in check with targeted melatonin and bluelight filters. Keeping up with old friends and family is also essential.

My running theory is that touch is certainly a positive, but it isn't essential if the other parts of your life are kept in shape. Although shortening that list of mental health tasks to something more manageable does sound enticing. I've never been good at dating though, and with the double whammy of it being quarantine and not having a local friend group I'm not really sure how to solve that problem. Dating advice might be a bit off topic for HN though, considering temporarily unblocking reddit.

In my world people are always hugging me.

It used to annoy me, but I am used to it now, in fact I like it - from people I like. I almost never initiate a hug except to my most intimate family members

I have had the bother of people being predatory sexually and touching me. Really annoying.

i haven't read through all the questions asked here, but yours is perhaps the least stupid

i suspect you may already know the answer to your question; of course not everyone needs to be vaccinated - that's the job of any reasonably healthy immune system and this virus, which has not been properly isolated by the way, and that comes directly from the CDC, is not particularly dangerous, and that comes directly from the WHO

any thinking human being knows that masks are, at best, largely ineffective at preventing transmission, as is "social distancing" - the way governments are handling this "pandemic", which by definition is not a pandemic, is killing far more people and ruining far more lives that the virus ever will

the question then becomes, why? why are we being asked, and compelled in many case, to wear ineffective masks? why are being threatened and arrested in some cases for not distancing when there is no creditable scientific evidence to support that distancing works?

furthermore, the rt-PCR "test" that is used by many labs to diagnose COVID-19 is not a test - it is a procedure designed to amplify a tiny amount of RNA or DNA - it was never designed to test for this or any other virus and it does not produce a binary result, so in the end , we have NO idea how many cases there are, and it gets worse than that because apparently PCR is looking for any corona virus, alive or dead! that means that anyone that's ever had a cold can test positive (along with people that died in motorcycle accidents, fallen down stairs, or got shot in the face apparently)

the number of 'cases' is meaningless and the survival rate is exceedingly high, and if we make an adjustment for the radically inflated number of deaths, it becomes very questionable whether there even is a "novel" corona virus or whether it's the flu

lastly, even if one is not reasonably healthy, or just doesn't wish to spend a lot of time being sick, all that required is high-dose vitamin C along with D3 (and zinc wouldn't hurt) - what's a high dosage? 4 grams+ / hr. for an adult, not that it's critical because no one has ever died from vitamins (minerals is a different story)

Not really, the financial center of India is Mumbai. Bombay Stock Exchance is in Mumbai, as its name implies. You could say the Wall Street of India is in Mumbai.

Anyway, I'm not sure it would make sense to make these comparisons.
I think it's a great idea to have a camera that is also a phone, rather than the other way around. I wouldn't care if it was an inch thick instead of a quarter inch if it had the actual best camera built in.
> LUEsers went to Something Awful IIRC

Most went to an invite only board called LUELinks / ETI.
> It's a pity that computing got so complicated

I disagree. For me it's much simpler now:

- Use python :)

I learned using a variety of languages from calculator assembly to C++ to GUI game scripting languages. Each had its quirks and C/C++ boilerplate definitely created friction. I was always really easy to write complicated algorithms and math but doing anything practical alluded me.

Now with python you're one library away from doing anything really interesting. There's almost zero boilerplate. 'import pygame' and with a bit of googling and basic knowledge you're off to making a pretty cool game! (learning physics, algorithms and more along the way)
I'm waiting for the article about the Nordic ritual of toalettet and how it is a deeper, more meaningful experience for communing with one's own waste products.
I feel like I did some analog of all of those in my USA school. We even went to week long camps in the mountains and snow ("in nature"). We have/had popular TV programs for kids that emphasize "the environment" and "nature".
None of the vaccines currently on the table are even remotely good enough for 'back to normalish.' The attack rate for this virus is so high that a vaccine good enough (i.e. multiple 9s effectiveness) to allow 'back to normal' almost certainly isn't possible.

The most we're going to get out of a vaccine is a tool that can be used in conjunction with physical distancing, and masks, to keep the infection rate and hospitalization rate sustainable.

Even with a vaccine, COVID-19 will remain one of the leading causes of death among the sick and elderly. The percentage of chronically ill people who live, and the percentage of people who make it past age 65, will plummet.

Everyone who's alive now will almost certainly need to socially distance (and should wear an N95/KN95 mask in public indoor spaces) for the rest of their lives.

What's happening now is humanity's normal.
I don't know anything about Benton Harbor, but here in the United States being told a town has "bad schools" tends to be very highly correlated to large non-white population. I just looked it up and oh hey, Benton Harbor's population is 89% African-American.
Something extremely relevant I've been considering pursuing: https://todoist.com/productivity-methods/medium-method

Your employer who's afraid of a pr disaster cares. Maybe your landlord cares. Some of the more unstable mobsters might care and threaten your physical well-being. Those three points happened already, they destroyed lifes and careers.

Also I never understood the concept of "cultural appropriation", what the heck does that even mean? As long as human history goes we've been copying cultural perks from other lands, regions and tribes. To tell people this is suddenly not okay for some reason is beyond crazy.
yea it's a '3 second handheld exposure' like are you kidding, in a camera review?
I’m wondering if the domain name and Mogul empire references are hints that this is a joke site of some sort.
Delhi is DC - capital of the country, lots of politicians and bureaucrats. Also spread out quite a bit and with lots of impressive historical and government buildings.

Mumbai is LA and NYC sort of combined - entertainment capital (Bollywood) and financial capital (main stock exchange, banks, Dalal street (equivalent of Wall Street). Also like NYC, cramped with lots of skyscrapers.
I do, but digital paper, via the Onyx Boox Note 2
I've used oneNote a long time, but I certainly click threads like these hoping for something better. I agree the web version sucks and is very buggy.

Also it took a big step backwards when they discontinued the office version and forced everyone to use the app version which has a lot less options. Perhaps that's your problem.
If you read what I wrote you will not find the word extremist anywhere. I didn’t say you you intend to sabotage quality education. I said you were against excellence. Turning a gifted school into a normal one will in practice be the end of academic acceleration. There’s no reason to believe getting rid of an option for the gifted will benefit anyone. If you have any examples to the contrary please share. Academic acceleration is rare in the US.
Awesome!! I hope you weren't being sarcastic because I feel like You hit the nail on the head. Uggg am I'm a Karen? It must be a generational thing and I'm a bit ashamed, as until now I have not heard of Nextdoor! I guess it's not targeted towards my generation :(

Better get some hair dye :P
How could you possibly make any use of 10g at your house? I guess you could run a web hosting business.
I got one just a few days ago. It's destined to be a standalone web-server - more or less "set and forget" - and a UPS controller.

That will relieve my main computer of having to do those things from then on.
Okay, this works!

I have thought about this in the past, keeping it all documented on notebooks, but indexing is one part that has made me question how to organize them.

Thank you!
How is it any different than with any other card and Apple Pay?

The public transit in those cities is non-existent compared to urban centers like Chicago or Seattle.
Warp Dissection: There's Hot Sauce in the Gears (2013)
I’ve lived in, worked in, or visited lots of the Midwest. It’s fair to generalize about the Midwest- the region has a distinct group of related cultures. Same is true of the west coast. Sure, it exists on a spectrum and is far less true of the cities than of the exurbs and smaller towns, but I don't think the GP was being unfair.
