I am also from NL, and first of all, you are blaming a big and diverse group, the 'left', for unnuanced statements and regrettable actions of some individuals. Every group has its crazies. Doesn't mean the whole 'left' is like that.

Second, they may be right. Which groups with 'different opinions' are you talking about? Geert Wilders has been convicted for libel against ethnic minorities. And Baudet has said that he wants Europe to be mostly white [1].

Third, now overgeneralizing myself, the 'right' does the same thing too: calling people on the left 'profiteers', crazy and lazy hippies who wanto to avoid any labor, etc. In fact, you are blaming the political left in your post right now for the murder of Pim Fortuyn, based on vague and unsubstantiated claims. You are doing the same thing you blame the left for.

And lastly, the original ideals from the left are very much needed in this neoliberal climate where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The economic divide is growing. Even the VVD is moving towards the left, seeing that the capitalist race has gone too far. One example: the Netherlands has a very serious housing crisis right now caused by neoliberalism. From the credit crisis to selling and reducing out the social housing stock, investors only wanting to build high end apartments, etc. In the last debate about it, the VVD was advocating for a bigger role in housing, that ideal is tradionally associated with the left.

So please, don't polarize, overgeneralize and blame the whole left for murder and name-calling. Using your line of reasoning again, it is not like the 'right' is in a good place right now with their corona denial and Qanon conspiracies.

How are memoirs fiction? I’m not sure what you mean.
I've always been a night owl. All the way into my late 20s I never got up earlier than midday and went to sleep in the small hours. But now I don't. I get up at the same time every day and try not to stay up too late at night. This has dramatically improved my happiness and performance. Back then I used to be depressed. It's a lonely life when you're nocturnal. There were days in the winter where I literally wouldn't see any daylight for days at a time.

I remember reading about delayed sleep phase disorder and non-24 disorder and thinking I must have it. It made me think this was somewhat normal and even made me think I might be a victim of sorts. But really what has fixed this for me is just discipline and structure. No drugs. No therapy. No crying about my woes and how difficult it is for someone like me. Just good old-fashioned discipline.

> “Oh Jeeeesus”

> In another video, Brandon's Tesla was making a left turn but wasn't turning sharply enough to avoid hitting a car parked on the opposite side of the cross street. "Oh Jeeeesus," Brandon said as he grabbed the steering wheel and jerked it to the left. "Oh my God," Brandon's passenger added.

Maybe it's just me, but this screams clickbait and low effort. The overall article is fine, but I nearly stopped reading after this. Is this kind of writing really necessary nowadays?

Yes, but the dynamics may be different. If social network software is banned, and replaced with a ten million small DIY networks that don’t interact with each other, will that be any different than local pubs and clubs?

If the networks join up, letting people interact, enabling or encouraging hate between each other, there is an incentive for members of each group to report the illegal networks to the authorities to harm “the other lot”.

(This is just an off-the-cuff thought, I’m a long way from understanding sociopolitical dynamics)
I mean, the Bond character didn't really help either. Much as his original take on Bond is a marvelous one for what it is, Bond was always written as an absolute jerk to women. https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-48512928

Might explain why he fit the role so well.
The reason would be that there are a lot of people in general and the trait isn’t harmful enough to be weeded out.

One thing, pain and expressing pain is vital. For you and also bonding. It's not a given on how to respond to someone's pain. If you deny someone too much he'll suffer a lot lot more [0]. Now sometimes pain is too intense and we also alienate people around us because they're, most of the time, not ready to understand or bear the load.

Not on HN usually.
First of all, all of your examples just show that someone living for minimum wage in the US is actually making way more than 42 USD/day ((7.25 USD * 40h work week) / 7 days) by the WB standards, as all those additional protections are counted in the adjusted income. How would the poverty stats look if you took extreme poverty to be 40 USD/day?

Secondly, you can live off the land and still live in a country with a functional health system. I'm not discussing nomad hunter-gatherers here, just people who don't live off a wage, like traditional farmers and rural tribes (who still have money from trading their goods for example, and can live pretty wealthy lives, but contribute disproportionately little to GDP).

Overall the point was that people can and have been living outside of any standard of poverty for a long time in areas that nominally have very little GDP per capita, and are often getting counted as extreme poverty in stats older than 1981.

Related to medical coverage, I was thinking more along the lines of cancer or serious chronic diseases, not acute poisoning or broken limbs. The kind of diseases that not only cost serious money to overcome in a privatized health system, but also destroy your ability to work and earn money when you're whole livelihood is dependent on a wage - even if Medicaid can cove the direct medical expenses.
It's really common among our types. There's an xkcd about it, naturally: https://xkcd.com/448/

I do wonder, though. Is it that we're different, or is it just that we have a hobby that can easily keep us awake slightly longer than we should be night on night? Maybe more people have the same innate tendency to slip, but they have structures that keep them more on track, like watching scheduled TV etc. It would be interesting to see if there are more cases of bad sleeping patterns now that on-demand TV is more popular.
Agreed. The internet, computer and chips though can be (more) neutral with care. They can serve you.
That's surprising, but there are many third party options to get it repaired. You can even DIY for $115 including required tools.

I know someone whose iPhone XR glass back broke after a year (they had a super robust case), Apple's response was it was not cost effective to repair. Ultimately devices designed to be repaired is the best answer (and maybe not have glass backs?), but I don't think there's that much difference in many cases here.
Grad school was described to me as a self induced neurosis.
Several days ago on HN others and I were discussing the relationship between the electric constant and magnetic constants (vacuum permittivity and magnetic permeability) and the speed of light (a debate† that's still ongoing). It seems to me this would have serious consequences for physics and the universe in general if the following relationship didin't hold under all conditions:

c = 1/(μ0 ε0)^0.5

If the speed of light were instantaneous in one direction, then the value of (μ0 ε0)^0.5 would have to be zero when light was travelling in that direction. Surely that has to be a serious problem?

Fun thing is: agile are principles.

Scrum is a method, or safe or less, or kanban.

And: The complete V belongs to the "definition of done" for safety projects, like the example above, control software for a nuclear reactor.

Whiche gets me to an intuition that you can have dysfunctional teams in any software engineering approach.

The challenge of dysfunctional teams is not addressed by a discussion about agile, lean, "waterfall".
"Move fast and break things."

I really don't understand how a company can get away with using its customers as QA when they sell products that can kill people. It's one thing if it's a website for throwing virtual sheep at another; nobody really cares if your Facebook feed omits an update or two. It's another thing if a software bug means that you die. Or at least it should be - I'm amazed at the number of people who seemingly don't care.

I also wonder what this is doing to Tesla's brand reputation. I was just in the market for solar panels and Tesla's offering (both the panels and the solar roof) was very, very attractive on price & aesthetics, but their reliability record with their cars made me think twice about buying a 25+ year product that keeps my home powered and dry.

If you would like to hear some of the greatest tubes, there are some interesting audio types that are electrically equivalent enough to be accepted for interchange in properly designed power amplifiers.

Most traditional tube amps were designed with only the performance of a single particular tube type in mind.

To keep distortion to a minimum, this can be a baseline requirement for audiophile performance when replacing tubes.

But with guitar amplifiers different amounts of distortion are desired or not at different times.

So these guitar circuits can be made more amenable to the limited variety of electrically suitable US and overseas choices having compatible pinouts.

Something like this:

http://www.kometamps.com/products/amplifiers/komet-60

where it can accept any of the US-style 6L6, 6CA7, 5881, or 7581
or the European-style EL34, KT77, or KT66

These all have compatible pinouts but they are not all supposed to be the same.

Each tube type had various vintage and some current manufacturers using components of differering material and geometry to achieve characteristic performance for that type according to its data sheet.

All of these types fall into a close enough ballpark where a musician can try different types according to taste in some amps, even if this would not be the traditional approach.

For guitar amplifiers the incoming signals often drive these tubes beyond the linear range shown on the data sheets anyway.

And at high volumes the differences in tubes' internal construction can be heard even more so in the suitcase-style amps where the tubes are right there by the speakers.

Plus there's the smaller preamp tubes, so many amps use nothing but 12AX7's in the preamp but there's a whole lot of different guts inside different 12AX7's over the decades.
Headline: we're so polarized! How awful wrings hands

Body: Republicans are bad Republicans are bad Republicans are bad Republicans are bad Republicans are bad Republicans are bad

I don't even have a problem with a certain amount of contempt for Republicans, or at least their politicians. It's just, if you pretend to be concerned about polarization in the abstract, you might try harder to pretend to be concerned about the ways in which both sides contribute to it. If you only know about the specific ways in which conservatives or Republicans are bad, or "more bad", you're unable to overcome your partisanship in a search for the whole truth.

If you want to learn about how the left contributes to polarization, you can start by having a look at Matt Taibbi's or Jesse Singal's Substack.
This is a sociology op-ed by a journalist for an ideologically-charged stats rag (538) being published in a science magazine.

I would appreciate it if tree people would stick to their trees, and stop (erroneously) extrapolating every minuscule change in the sap into a chicken-little prognostication for the entire forest.

I like liberals, I like conservatives, but one type I cannot abide are these preening, midwit, overcredentialed, underperforming, doomsayers.

It will all be just fine.
Please beware there are many fake bitcoin mining/clouding out there, I got scammed twice before I met a genius hacker who helped retrieve my bitcoin. The whole plan was so smooth I could not doubt it. Bitcoin is actually a great investment option but one thing I discovered over time is that it is not possible to mine bitcoin so don’t be deceived. I invested $25000 on a particular website called eurekaminingblock, I monitored the profit yielding but got locked out of the account before I could withdraw. I went online and met this hacker bitcoin-retrieval genius who helped me retrieve my bitcoins back in a few hours. You saved my life and I will forever be grateful. I referred my friends whom we got scammed together right away and they got help too.

Hello everyone, I want to share with you all vital information on trading of stocks and forex are expected to put a large amount on my trading account, I’ve watched how my balance would go higher and higher. And of course, seeing this “proof” of how I’m good at it, my manager Peter made me invest over 85,000Euro. After a couple weeks of such magnificent trading, my account ended up over 400,000Euro. An excellent opportunity to file a withdrawal, no? No!! They released only 500 in order to trick me to invest more than 200,000Euro. I didn’t have such money at the moment and I was put on hold....Weeks after nobody would even answer my calls or my emails. It became very clear that I’ve become a victim of a huge and shameless scam. Time passed by and I was growing disappointed and very angry with my own naiveness. Only in August 2017 I came across CONTACT@ACTIVEBONORUM.COM, a company which works against binary criminals. They didn’t charge any upfront payment . It was a little hard to believe someone over the internet and phone again, but I lost too much money and lost just a little bit more, in case if it's another scam, it was not that painful. I’ve provided their team with all documents related to my trading and waited. After few weeks i got all my money back and have to send their percentage commission after I was able to withdraw all the recovered funds as agreed, i recommend www.activebonorum.com
> I mean, someone wrote these 'track and trace' apps. This is to say, they are explicitly enabling the government to track every single move of its citizens. Is that ok? Not to me. They should have resigned rather than play their part in increasing governmental control.

To put yourself in their shoes: they may argue that it’s not ok to “let” bad actors abuse and injure citizens. Many of the people who have been in these positions and talked about it publicly have talked about how they felt like they were doing the right thing. Whether that be tracking child abusers or terrorists or “threats to national security”, they felt driven to make the tools to track and trace these people.
One thing that annoyed me with his acting is as he got older his particular lisp got stronger and it gets harder to not notice. In his early movies it was merely a peculiar speech pattern.

It’s a smaller scale (and a different structure) but I recently bought a Vango Project Hydrogen tent which uses a single “air beam” as its main structure instead of poles. Actually there is still 1 small pole involved but it’s not part of the main structure.

That’s done to save weight whilst being more resistant to being deformed by the wind.

I wonder if that could be taken further with these small cushions to provide insulation as well as structure as you suggest?

Rowan Atkinson appears in "Never Say Never Again" as a character that is almost Mr. Bean. It's not really a cameo though.

Other than that, it's mostly production folks:

You are absolutely correct. Defining agile as principles, or scrum as a method is correct, but doesn't change how the terms are used. Turning dysfunctional teams around is something I'm reasearching (as identifying them is easy).
