If anyone's looking for a mobile notes app that syncs with git, I highly encourage checking out GitJournal. I used it for a bit before building a personal app specific to my workflow.

Are you still bundling libgit? I remember checking this project out and was impressed you got the setup to work with flutter. It's actually a reason I switched to react native because there were pure JS git implementations [0].

Russiagaters have just completely lost it. Get this: The guy who founded parler is married to a russian and they married in a government facility, in a ceremony overseen by a government functionary. Do people in the US get married by private companies, in ceremonies overseen by company men?
Great point. I find culture itself is 'brainwashing'. It is just influence on your thoughts/who you are. The term brainwashing brings a good amount of negativity and polarism. It's not something that happens to 'us' but 'them'.

We are all brainwashed to an extent. Knowing that can at least prepare you to bring a good scrub and soap on your washings.
Yeah, the fact that it’s like being hit by lightning is exactly the issue.

I think part of the optimism (in investing) is finding the opportunity in the bad. For example the best time to buy is after a crash kind of thinking.

Also I would argue that most of us are more optimistic than we think, why else would we buy workout equipment or get gym memberships over and over when our past history would prove pretty solidly that what we think will happen likely won't. It's because we are secretly optimistic that it can/will happen this time. Granted this isn't true for everyone but the point that we are more optimistic than we think is in broad strokes true.
Instead of penalizing change, why not encourage it? When you work from home, you don't put anywhere near the carbon into the atmosphere that you would commuting. You also spend a lot less on lunch, and you don't need to put your children into state-run schools that are really there to function as daycare centers as much as they are to educate. If all of that office space in downtown areas stays dark, and the zoning laws are altered or removed, it can be redeveloped into housing that's actually affordable.

We really are running into a wall on the methane crisis, and we we simply don't have the time to integrate these changes at a slower pace.

Let's focus on changing our regulations that prohibit building neighborhoods for pedestrians. Let's work on getting homes with solar roofs and big batteries. Let's get drone delivery everywhere. Let's electrify the transport system with electric cars, electric trucks, eVTOL aircraft. Let's tunnel underneath and between cities and connect them with hyperloops. Let's connect people in rural areas with low-cost, low-latency satellite internet access.

Doing these things will directly provide a great number of jobs for a great number of people. It will make a great number of new jobs possible. It will improve the natural environment. I think this is a much more positive direction to take than to try to slow things down.
What a nonsensical article. Such power of courts already exists, but it mostly boils down to US law as most of the platforms are in the US. Think about the debates on photos of breastfeeding, a fully natural act that happens to show a part of the body that all humans possess. But as the US has a double standard where female nipples are sinful and obscene - and male nipples totally fine - a mom in Germany or France or Austria will not be able to upload such photos (similar to e.g. some regions in Africa where going topless is not unusual for women).

Similarly if you dare use content of a US media organisation you'll get a global DMCA takedown. Even if you do e.g. a critique or it's playing as background in a video recorded in a public space, all of which are protected under most countries' legislation. Hell videos of families singing Happy Birthday are DMCAd as one of many american troll companies claims to own the copyright to the lyrics.

On the other hand, gruesome and deeply intrusive/personal videos of e.g. murder or violence are tolerated on Facebook and similar sites as those are in the US context not undedstood to be harmful.

In germany public holocaust denial can be punished with five years in prison (although it very rarely goes so far), but Facebook serves as wonderful breeding ground of conspiracy theories about Jewish world conspiracies and the holocaust being a lie. Cause "free speech" is final, even blatant falsehoods.

I don't think a regional Austrian court should be the judge for the internet, but the only reason it is trying to take this role is because these sites' host country applies absurd laws (what's more harmful for a 15 year old to see, a beheading or some lady's nipples?) and the sites refuse to apply common sense. This lady was harassed quite intensely and Facebook refused to take action - that's the case here.

So what's the solution? Some global court system? Agreed minimum standards? Companies localising content more? I have no idea, but its pretty clear that the US giants have a harmful effect not just on US but global public discourse as they refuse to address misinformation, lies, harassment, holocaust denial, etc etc

Users everywhere have had to put up with U.S law for a long time. The laws and norms of the USA are more or less "fully baked in".

Try posting a nipple or copyrighted track, for example.

If Facebook had come from a different place, all songs and body bits might be Ok but perhaps discussion of government would be banned. I can't tell if that would actually be a better facebook than the one we got.
I'm disappointed XMPP was not adequately improved, and instead everything has been re-written and re-designed.

XMPP is an IETF spec. Is Matrix?
You can set up gmail with your own domain that you have control over.
> The situation is more nasty with devices bought/leased from a carrier because these insist on preloading all kinds of crapware

Apple has their own issues, but at least the above carrier crapware issue isn’t one of them on iOS and never has been.
I always wondered what that was for, cool!
> Without edges on the buttons, you no longer know where you can click.

I don't see the issue. It's obvious to me by looking that they're buttons and users aim to click in the middle so if they miss by a little it's likely going to work if you mean that.

Even if it was an issue, it sounds like a very small one and a tradeoff for a cleaner look. Nothing is perfect.
In that case they'd probably be more comfortable with something provided through the app store. Try BetterSnapTool for $2. It's pleasantly customizable.
Linux high end phones will never be a reality, at least not what people here would consider Linux at best you’ll get is Android or Android like OS.

Other than that you’ll get low volume low end devices at high end or higher prices due to lack of economy of scale.

What most consumers actually want and I’ll put in that list also many many people that say they want a “Linux Phone” but in reality will go back to their iPhone/Android after a week is quite different than what a tiny niche is willing and capable of dealing with.
I’ve taken these classes and it comes down to “be someone you aren’t in order to make conversation”

It just feels so fake and scripted. I can easily tell in a business setting when people are just putting on their Dale Carnegie hat.
Indeed.. maybe 'pilot program' would help.
Matrix is not.
I've been using Matrix for three years I believe and I can't remember a single time when I needed to use 3PIDs.
Think this is bad? Does it raise a concern in you? Well, let me remind you of leaded gasoline and how it used to convert people in post apocalyptic savages taken right from a Mad Max movie - scientifically proven.

Electric vehicles can't come fast enough. We desperately need a battery tech revolution!
It's extension story was fragmented, and there wasn't enough of a consensus (different actors had very different use cases) to pull it back together.

Chat needs a stronger guiding body to keep it corralled. It's too easy and tempting to extend in incompatible ways.
There are problems outside of cognitive burden. More expressiveness actually leads to a higher error surface area.

The more power you have the more opportunities you also have to shoot yourself in the foot.

Removing mutability as a feature from a language also removes all mutable logic errors from a language. Removing null values from the language removes all null related runtime errors from a language.
It would likely have some effect but you'd have to pack and power the air supply. Might be something you could just do with compressed air and have a little foot pedal to turn it on when you want it.
I do have a lot of stuff that I’d be sad about if lost on Google. And yes, I would be inconvenienced to contact all the services for an email change. But when talking about how our society got to where it is now, I just can’t see the moral weight of these kinds of monopolies in the context of just losing access.
My wife worked for an airline and on one flight to Kai Tak I was invited to sit in the jump seat (the position behind the captain and opposite the navigator or engineer) during the approach. It was utterly amazing and terrifying at the same time, especially the looming mountain which had a giant blinking arrow indicating the direction of turn.

This was (obviously) many years ago.
Can you empathize with genius beyond your comrehension, or is this just a downward relationship, and does doing so make you a peer? Can you empathize with objective evils like sadism or cruelty without becoming a party to it? It raises the question of what it is, really.

The popular emphasis on empathy seems to reduce to a secular political idea, where the more traditional value of compassion is more of a theological concept. When I read appeals to empathy, I see appeals to a secular morality that originates in the material idea of progress, which while not necessarily negative, it's not above criticism either.
I highly recommend checking out the list of supported devices and considering getting one. Works incredibly well, and out of the box doesn't have any Google services (spyware) installed.
I think this is a great idea and aligns well with what the general public wants. However, I'm afraid it might lead to injuries or even deaths of health responders if the encounters turn violent due to mental illness, drug abuse, or general fear of authorities + concealed weapons. This would end up swinging public opinion right back to the other side again. Like most issues in America, this one is complicated.
Even if you actually forced a customer to read the T&C’s somehow (rather than just annoying them with a forced delay), do you think the average consumer would understand what it means and what trade offs they are making?

The “solution” isn’t forced legaleze on customers, it’s more “do what’s in the customer’s best interest” not “do whatever you can legally get away with to make the most money off them”.
Would be good if Google just published the stats on their transparency report:

I had been debating whether to replace my 2013 MB Pro with another Mac or go with a ThinkPad. After seeing the UI comparison of Catalina and Big Sur, the decision is easy. My next laptop will be a ThinkPad.

I switched to Mac around 2001 when OS X was first released. I made the switch so that I could run OS X. I have witnessed a continual decline in it. I stopped my OS upgrades with Mojave because I didn't want to lose the ability to run Adobe PhotoShop CS4 and Microsoft Office 2011 (both 32-bit).

I can't stand washed-out (overly white) UIs. Add a bunch of unused real-estate and it's especially maddening. Throw in cartoonish icons and coloring and I'm out of here. The dumbing down of the OS has crossed my level of tolerance.

If it were possible to run alternate OSs on M1, I'd seriously consider it. I'm done with OSX/macOS.
“Able to compete” is a funny phrase. My father works in a labor field. I think he has to pay something like $7 an hour in insurance apart from an hourly salary. His field is full of undocumented workers whose employers don’t pay this insurance (it’s all cash).

When undocumented laborers are hurt or injured, local hospitals pay for medical care for undocumented individuals. So they don’t really need insurance anyway.

In that way my father can’t really compete with foreign labor. How we reconcile with this is a good question.
Show HN: I built a website that collects remote jobs from the internet
I work as an EMT for a 911 service. The general attitude that I have and other EMS providers I’ve talked with seem to share is that this won’t end well.

The first thing we’re taught is that the scene must be safe. If it’s not safe, we stage nearby until law enforcement or fire tell us to come in. The 911 dispatch is notorious for misevaluating the nature and severity of a situation, and generally we are toned out to an address and keep getting updates with call details as we are driving there. In this country where anyone can have a gun on them, there is no way in hell that I and my partner are approaching an emotionally disturbed person with no way to defend ourselves. If something goes wrong, the most effective weapon we have is an oxygen tank. And now the public’s perception of drugs like ketamine for chemical restraint is souring, so the message seems to be “Go deal with the worst our society has to offer, with no backup in case they try to hurt you, no not even safe chemical restraints. And no sorry we can’t pay you more than a cashier at WalMart... but you’re heroes!” Just last year a firefighter paramedic in my state was shot dead after administering naloxone to a man and saving his life.

Part of it is the compensation. Law enforcement officers are paid substantially more than the EMS folks here with the understanding that they take on more risk. We make $12 hourly... not enough to accept drastically increasing our chances of being hurt or killed.
Never mention a desired salary.
If they put you in a position where they stall to continue without hearing what you want, just shoot for the stars.
I like 1.5x current salary. It gets a lot harder around 150k, at which point switch to current salary + 50-60k.

Make sure you know your minimum number. If at any point their offer is less than your minimum, simply walk away.

As a rule of thumb, always ask for at least 10% more than their initial offer -- even if you are happy with it (Unless they are matching a number you gave them -- which is part of why you don't).
Recruiting has already accounted for and expects negotiation in their offer. It's their job to hope some sucker accepts a low ball.
Worst case they say no, best case they say yes... and usually it'll fall somewhere in between. Doesn't hurt to ask; and in most cases, you'll come out ahead. Just do it.

Signing bonuses can be a useful way to squeeze an extra 10% if they absolutely refuse to budge on the base. Some signing bonuses require you to pay them back if you leave before a certain time period. Don't let this extend beyond the first year.

Stock options are worthless imo. They typically vest over 4 years and you don't get anything until you've been there a year. Don't let them compromise your base. Especially if the company isn't publicly traded. If you do get them, treat them as a nice surprise bonus.
Those are the dumbed down options for plain users.

Power users just disable the Telemetry service.

Start > Run > services.msc. Right-click on "Collected User Experiences and Telemetry". Stop the service and change startup-type to Disabled.

Or you can use windows group policy editor. (which every IT department uses)

Start > Run > gpedit.msc
Computer Configuration> Administrative Templates> Windows Components> Data collection and Preview Builds

Allow Telemetry > Disabled.

Now, please do educate me on how to disable telemetry on MacOS Big Sur without third party software.

On the contrary, particulate "nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and oxides (NOx), ozone (O3)" is at its maximum around busy roads.

This rung _so_ untrue that I just went and tested it on three different macs running various combinations of Big Sur beta and shipped, since I use Alfred and disable Spotlight's UI.

And predictably, it's simply not true. If you open the spotlight window and type "5+5", 10 appears immediately as the first result line. If you type "85lbs in kg" the first line immediately reveals it to be 38.56kg. In fact, I didn't even need to type the "in kg", since it did that by default.

So what precise regression are you talking about here?
Easily explained -- false negatives are much more common than false positives for the kind of tests he had. Of course Musk is smart enough to figure this out, so he's just trolling as usual.
Too bad his trolling could actually do some damage in this case.

Thanks for valuable information. I am planning to make a little home studio for me and my friends, would you be so kind to give me advice in which DAW to invest my time, and what are alternatives on linux regarding support of thunderbolt or usb interfaces. Is windows the only future-proof and viable option for producing music nowadays? Thanks in advance.
What's the likelihood that running a non MacOS in emulation would still be a reasonable dev environment compared to native on some other hardware?
> The strange thing is I always hear people talk about things how functional languages like say... Haskell are more expressive and more powerful than imperative languages. They are technically wrong. These languages are LESS powerful.

You're just arguing from different definitions, here. In fact, it's worth checking whether your definitions match up whenever you find yourself saying "technically" since it suggests you're applying a particular definition.
Usually something what I call a "decision core" is embedded in every interactive program. Deciding what to do with input. Sometimes this is just an if-else-tree, sometimes a statistical model, sometimes a logic program. Execution is done in an imperative fashion.

Usually on microcontrollers you don't have enough space to have a control system and a logic program. So I extend LP with IO and compile efficient code.

Partial programs are basically extracted using the Datalog research about parallelism and distribution over components. Queries evaluated in parallel/distribute can be compiled to separate programs. And if the program is bounded, through an abstract execution we can basically generate all possible extentions (parameterized) of the minimal model.
Where the proof can not be obtained, we compile a small embedded deductive database.

I have to look at the stuff you've linked. Interesting and adjacent. Is the github in your profile an appropriate way to contact you? I'll shoot you an email in a few days.
From https://www.grammarly.com/blog/empathy-sympathy/

- Empathy is a term we use for the ability to understand other people’s feelings as if we were having them ourselves.

- Sympathy refers to the ability to take part in someone else’s feelings, mostly by feeling sorrowful about their misfortune.

I think you may have confused the terms.
If it’s actually a mDNS/multicast issue, you can run an mDNS proxy or similar to bridge the networks. I don’t have a Sonos setup to test with, but it works for other mDNS services.

Sadly this isn't true. I can't register to download my electric bill without a google, facebook or twitter account. Electric companies are local monopolies so I can't switch to another supplier either.

My email account still belongs to google, so I can't claim that this makes any difference in my life. It's a bit disturbing nonetheless.
I'm having trouble understanding your point. Leaving aside simply googling it, surely you can't be saying that because you haven't heard of something, it doesn't exist or isn't a threat or isn't worth any concern.
Simple sells. Could have taken another century if group video calls hadn't recently been made simple.

What's simpler: group video call or group audio bridge?

The UX for most audio bridges:
1. difficult to setup account, dial-in #s, etc. in the first place (for the organizer of the call)
2. participants need to type in a long PIN
3. participants don't always know who is on the bridge, who isn't and who is but unknowingly muted.

It helped of course that people had non business reasons to have Zooms, Facetimes, Hangouts etc. prior to the pandemic (whereas most people didn't have non-business audio conferencing accounts).

And timing is always important - near ubiquitous broadband and personal compute being prerequisites for the mass video conferencing boom.
Those aren't actually integrated. They just live side-by-side.

So in Austria you're not allowed to insult a politician unless a court agrees with your insult? That's incredibly fascist.
It doesn’t show up on the right pane in a split (as it used to pre-Big Sur)

This difference is more noticeable when I’m looking up a word in the dictionary, looking up a contact etc, or searching for an email/file. Why do I have to press another key?!
You can also think of it as "make an effort to act in a way others enjoy".
Rule of thumb: everybody who has an HN account is an outlier compared to the general population.

General people -- even those who are highly educated and use computers all the time -- do not think about their tools. They click on defaults without thinking about them. And Apple and Google and Microsoft know this and take advantage of it.
Why would I trust a random person with my secrets?

OP here. I certainly did not change the title, and would like to know who changed the title and why?

In the article I clearly call out that using any third-party is a risk, so I don't see a reason why the moderator felt the need to say that in the submission title as well.
This seems the same story as Incredible Burger: take an existing alternative, jiggle the pieces a bit and invest a few million in marketing and celebrity endorsements. A silicon valley high tech story underlying the whole thing...

Combining different ingredients is basic food science and you'll see fantastic things in the ingredient list of most modern industrial foods. No need for a made-up AI or stories about finding a match of 'molecules'.

Happy to see the veggie space grow but this marketing is just outrageous...

P.S.: I've been veggie for more than a decade and Incredible Burger despite all its advertisement tastes rancid and sad compared to many existing alternatives. If you don't like it don't be fooled into thinking that all veggie/vegan stuff tastes bad ;)
