NetNewsWire is even FOSS.

It supports only Feedbin (itself FOSS but supports non-self hosted) and Feedly though. I want to self-host. TANSTAAFL and either I get used for profiling/upselling (Feedly) or I need to pay money while I can self host (Feedbin).

Reeder 4 is also good, I tried it (for free) right before Reeder 5 got released. It supports a whole lot more than NetNewsWire, including self hosting services FreshRSS, Reader, and Fever (deprecated). It also has support for Pocket.

So I went with Reeder and got FreshRSS installed.

On Android I settled with FeedMe, but honestly I haven't found a slick one which works with FreshRSS.

I could settle with tmux + CLI + Browsh. In that case, consider Newsboat. It supports a myriad of (self-hosted) RSS services. But not the ones Reeder supports...
The biggest reason people don't vote in national elections in the USA --- in many cases, it is a senseless exercise with zero impact on the outcome.

Example: A Republican vote in a heavily Democratic state will have zero impact on the outcome --- and vice versa.

It is only in a handful of "swing" states where your vote is likely to have any real impact. South Carolina is voting Republican, California is voting Democratic. I'm not psychic, just realistic. The outcome is not in doubt. Vote or not, the results will be the same.
But that's not how centrism is defined.

Centrist public opinion is very different from the status quo, and this is a hugely important distinction to make.

The status quo is set mainly by elites who have a vested interest in their own wealth and power.

The "center" of public opinion, when you actually survey people in detail on the preferences they hold, does not match particularly well with government policy in the US.

(If democracy worked perfectly, then the two might coincide, but they don't because it doesn't.)

From surveys I've seen, the American "center" maps best to a moderately liberal position in current politics, though it really depends on the issue. The American center is extremely liberal when it comes to gay marriage, very liberal with a public option for health care and race issues, moderately liberal when it comes to abortion and gun ownership, and moderately conserative when it comes to economic policy.
The nanoprocess concept seems like a big deal.

I remember reading about a vulnerability in the unix utility "strings". The code is incredibly simple at first glance, but it had a dependency to detect the filetype, and that dependency was not safe on untrusted input.

At that moment I realized that unix security was fundamentally flawed. A utility that does nothing but read its input and write the output shouldn't have permission to do anything else.
> is that they lose the safe harbor.

For that particular instance or permanently?
This is actually a great response.
It is… definitely not that simple. Not for everyone, at least.

I don't think we can learn anything. The whole dynamic is different. Interest rates, BoC/FED Gov are too invested in keeping the market going to allow it to correct. People have stretched themselves to the limits with debt. Then you have incredible capital outflows from Asia just parking money in Canadian Real Estate.

For ever distressed Canadian sale, there will be 100's of billions of foreign $$$ waiting to snatch it up.

It is truly remarkable what a young Canadian faces today when it comes to enjoying what previous generations took for granted. A good job or career, a house or property, etc. It just isn't going to happen for the majority of them.

You can rent a big gen-set (like what they use for temp power to large outdoor events, construction sites, etc) for decently cheap (cheap in terms of business expenses). Should be able to get you by long enough for a judge to tell the power company to quit dicking around.
> the US overton window is still very right on economics and foreign policy.

Yes! It's amazing. I don't think there will ever be some magical set of axes that allows a really clear quantification of where the US is at. The problem, of course, is that because of the false dichotomy of choices (R vs D) you can't actually vote for foreign policy decisions at all. It's not even a topic of debate, really!

Essentially, the USA continues to have a relatively hawkish position, continues to fund under-reported foreign wars (e.g. in Yemen presently), continues to be a destabilizing entity in many ways, often to the benefit of countries more closely allied to the USA (Saudi Arabia, Israel, etc) at the expense of smaller and less powerful nations. It's very confusing, full of misdirections, and impossible for any normal person to follow.

Most Americans want fewer foreign wars, I think. Most Americans (surprisingly including a large and growing swathe of the working class right-wing, believe it or not) are open to the idea of social healthcare in one form or another.

Large moneyed interests make these efforts impossible to take on politically, though, and whenever public opinion could be useful to influence actions on the issue, you'll see more false dichotomies form, meta-layers of fractally nested infighting designed to make it so people get hung up on stupid things and debate that instead of the real issue (huge lobby groups intent on acting as middlemen in every transaction to wring every last dollar out of people for no benefit to them whatsoever).
Really? It's HN. You can't even have a thread without at least one comment complaining about bad website design.

I share your lack of interest in using this specific product because I also prefer something closer to plain text notes that I manage for things like this, but I do think this is a more interesting service than just "a database with a UI".

The automatic reminders to read and type notes via emails solves a problem that I expect many people have with taking these kinds of notes: remembering to write them after meetings and remembering to read them before meetings.

I made no claim of scientific rigour, though we can speak in those terms if you like.

My undergrad was in biochem. I have a decent grasp of how complicated biological systems are. I don't even begin to profess to have adequate understanding. I am not a domain expert.

That said, I don't see how imagining an engineering solution where measurements are taken of a brain's "state" and replicated with an algorithm are metaphysical psuedoscience. It's out of the reach of today's tech for sure, but I'd like to think we'll eventually make progress and one day be interested in solving this problem. Evolution stumbled upon human brains as a solution for propagation. We're all a lot smarter as hill climbing agents than our genes.

I do not think we'll solve this in our lifetimes, but it's so much better to think of than optimizing ad tech, election fraud, and structural inequality.

You lost me here. I don't think something has to be philosophically grounded to be identified as a problem space and tackled. Epistemology ontology whatevers don't fuel rockets.

If there’s more context you’re certainly not communicating it very well and all we see is some company attempting to trademark something they neither invented nor owned and crying discrimination with little to no supporting evidence.

Also, did you delete your downvoted comment then post the same thing in a new one? I saw your comment posted a while ago, in the gray, then when I refreshed before responding, bam, “0 minutes ago”. That’s not cool.
I just assumed all of that was in the public domain and legal to download. The only reason I was asking about Torrent was because of the large size of the file, and because I'm a developer working in IPFS world and very interested in decentralization.

> journalists looking at Twitter and either a) using that as a stand-in for 'this is what the public think' or b) making it the story itself.

I'm surprised that you say that the main culprit is the main stream media. I see this kind of reporting in all news outlets, especially non-MSM. It's cheap and trivial to write an article that highlights some comments from four people with 15 twitter followers a piece, and claim that "People are saying".

You even hear the POTUS frequently use "people are saying" and then quoting whackadoos from Twitter. Can we really hold MSM to a higher standard than the president of the free world?

I wasn't, and it's not. I genuinely think you're in the minority here (which is unusual, on the 'net, where piracy's concerned).
A lot of companies that care deeply about security are moving to this “trust no one” approach which has the added benefit for end users of allowing access to “secure internal sites” over the plain old internet. If done right this can all be a big boost for security and improved end user experience. That said, the old “you need to be on the VPN” approach is going to stick around for some time.
I am not sure faster compilation is the way to go. Cutting 30 sec to 15 helps little and the acceleration of compilation can't catch up with the growth of packages in the long run. Also, multi-threaded precompilation sounds a bad idea on managed clusters where resource usage should be controlled. I wonder how much Julia devs have done on caching precompiled binaries. That, though non-trivial to implement properly, is the ultimate solution to slow compilation.

Sir, that is some fantastic science. Hats off.

1. To what extent does your work imply the ability of local field potentials to entrain neural activity? Are the electrical fields strong enough?

2. The fact that humans and the occasional cockatoo/seal are the only animals capable of entraining to a beat is quite remarkable, given that brains are basically collections of powered oscillators (which naturally synchronize and entrain). This makes me think that there must be some elaborate set of defenses against entrainment - - defenses that only humans (and the occasional cockatoo/seal) are able to lower.
If people haven't logged in for the past years, they should never be the population considered to judge wether the new design is good or bad. OC's and your opinion are meaningless to the discussion if you are not a user.
Because maybe you like to think on stereotypes and lack nuance for lack of experience due to age or limited geographical mobility.
Hey Julian, thanks for posting this.

I'm still going through the post but this is targeted to some of the questions a developer looking at Stimulus Reflex has to consider.

Do you think pulling prior art from something like LiveView is helpful as well?

For example:

I was using it to design a city for a game. Now I don't even know anymore. I find it very relaxing to place blocks and build stuff.
This demographic trend reverses itself in about 10-15 years as the comparatively tiny Gen-Z reaches homebuying age, but in the meantime there'll be an even bigger pop as late Millenials (1990-1998) reach homebuying age and there are nowhere near enough homes for them all.

It's worth pointing out that in most developed countries (but not the US), there are far fewer millenials than there are boomers. Also, most residential real estate in developed countries is owned by boomers, and the oldest boomers (right now, this year, in 2020) are entering their final years (age 75). I think even within 5 years most mid-tier cities in the developed world that aren't hopelessly supply-constrained will see huge drops in residential home prices.

I don't precisely mean React Developer Tools because the UI is unnecessary for this usecase, but it provides similar functionality where you can access the state/props from the component instance.

The library is: https://github.com/baruchvlz/resq

Example code:

// resq is the stringified source of the library
// page is a Puppeteer page
// this line injects resq into the page
await page.evaluate(resq);
// This finds a React component with a prop "country" set to "us"
const usProps = await page.evaluate(
`window["resq"].resq$("*", document.querySelector("#__next")).byProps({country: "us"}).props`
);
// This finds a React component with a prop "expandRowByClick" set to true
const news = await page.evaluate(
`window["resq"].resq$("*", document.querySelector("#__next")).byProps({expandRowByClick: true}).props.dataSource`
);

A bit off-topic, but I always find it so interesting that the creators of React - the premier web UI framework - did such a poor job with Facebook on mobile web.

It’s borderline unusable, but I suspect this might be intentionally done to drive users to the mobile app.
That's why Julia was created though. There is a lot of scientific code that needs to be fast and is written in C or Fortran, but those languages are mediocre in terms of scientific programming.

Subjectively, the presence of food or drink implies a concern for your physiological wellbeing. Since it was not a defined contractual element of the exchange, it also represents a bonus, an above-and-beyond.

It would be interesting to have tested this during the time of fidget spinners or some other tchotchke, to remove the food element but that aside, I think a weakly confirming result would be confirming what we expect: signs of care and emotional engagement beyond the immediately neccessary improve mood, and so improve some outcomes.

There is a saying that positive reinforcement beats negative reinforcement but it comes with an implicit corollary: negative reinforcement beats nothing: That negative pupil teacher interaction reports exist with higher scores should not be surprising, because it is possible SOME people achieved higher scores, despite hating (and negatively rating) their teacher.

” If you see test positivity rate remaining low but cases increasing - which we do in many areas with sufficient testing - then it does suggest more people are getting the virus.”

No, it suggests that you’re doing more testing, and finding more cases. Which, exactly as the OP said, is a metric that can be manipulated by doing more testing.

The whole reason we emphasize positivity rate is to try to compensate for the inherent bias in reporting raw case counts.

There have been far more cases than we have ever formally detected with testing. There’s plenty of room to increase that number by testing more people, but it will not affect hospitalizations or deaths -
which is exactly what we’re seeing.
I think you've overlooked OPs point a bit. You don't need to understand the C/libc internals to be able to operate MySQL (you do need to know it's quirks though). With a JVM application, you're going to need to understand the application level configs, think of something like spark, and if you're doing anything with large amounts of data or high RPS, you're also going to need to understand the JVM internals. The closest analog might be needing to understand the libc allocator for certain usage patterns, and that happens, but it's far more rare than someone needing to tune garbage collection algorithms and parameters. JVM tuning is just a reality of operating in the java ecosystem.
