Ask HN: Links that open articles in a frame with comments?
Small pain point while browsing HN. I have to decide whether to open the comments or open the article. I almost always regret opening the article because i have to go back to hunt for the link to comments; even if the article turned out worthless I'm still often curious about the comments.

If I open comments, I have to make a second tab anyway to see any of the article, and often don't even bother doing that, thus missing out on some content. Can we have a way to see both from one click?

There are no brain abnormalities. They simply found different values for grey/white matter in certain areas of the brain from controls, but these values vary among the population, and it isn't evidence of brain damage.

Indeed, and these symptoms can be very serious in many cases (having experienced them myself, to a much worse degree of impairment than described here).

It's not "nothing". FND (and variations thereof) is incredibly serious, and not "mass hysteria", and it is the most common complaint seen by neurologists. People who actually understand about FND are saying it is the most plausible explanation for these symptoms:

I don't think that's a good read on the situation. I think a better analysis is that there is no money being what amounts to a facade on top of an operating system/kernel capability. All the real novelty and challenge to containers is in the OS itself. Everything else is more or less ease of use, which is important but relatively easy to replicate. In the span of 5 years or so, Docker went from being critical glue code to cruft.

You're correct for console that handled that at the hardware level. I understood this section as referring to computer games, which didn't do that on the hardware.
Not a fire safety expert but yes, I understand it is still sound advice. Keep in mind it’s not “shelter until the fire is out,” it’s “shelter until a safety authority gives you clearance to leave or your life is at risk.”

a) the possibility of stampede is real, especially for children, the disabled, and the elderly

b) in a high rise, an evacuation stairwell might seem safe at the top but could be impassable much lower down. You would have no way of knowing ahead of time. So then evacuees have to backtrack and try to find a clear stairwell, which could be impossible if the stairs are too crowded.

In my experience with fire drills in high rises, “shelter in place” is really about staggered evacuation: first evacuate the floors surrounding the area where the fire was detected, then continue from there.

Author here. Thanks for your comment! I struggled with this as well. I agree that I might be conflating things a bit, but I did try to contextualize the slow but gradual move away from all things docker with the fate of the company, starting with the platform wars and resulting in the runtime deprecation. I think a lot of what happened came about because Docker took on Kubernetes with Swarm and lost.
"Quantity has a quality all its own"

Also, and perhaps easier to wrap one's head around, is issues of tooling. Already, there is a very heavy use of "tactics" (metaprograms, and ones with decent computational complexity (think "search" not just "expansion")). Mathematicians write lemmas so we can try to run the tactics on "mini problems" that do not grow even as the total body of work grows, but there's always a risk the that there's some sticking point one cannot break down enough.
That is obvious, but that is not something especially unique to gold - pretty much everything physical is regulated at the border. Yours is more of a statement about border security than gold. To bring it back to crypto, you can easily cross a border without your crypto being touched.
Peer review basically confirms that there are no obvious, glaring problems with the methodology or conclusions. It's not like the peers actually reproduce the experiments.

If you are a "brand name" researcher (i.e. already well known and respected by your peers) peer review is even less meaningful as it's pretty much a rubber stamp.

I must be still missing something... If no one is matching bets, why would figuring out how to "successfully lay all outcomes" change that? At some point don't you need a "sucker", no matter how many outcomes you lay?
Pros and Cons of Running Multiple Businesses
Podman would be next big thing if:
1. they make a package like docker ob mac where you dont have to fiddle with manually starting vms. An environment where using docker feels native
2. When they start the vm to run podman they will use qemu on arm to simulate an x86 machine and run x86 containers

The second one will be a huge step forward as docker will not be able to do this for a long time as they use the mac hypervisor which can‘t run x86 vms. Podman would enable again prod/dev comparability which may work for redhat to more people switching to podman even for their production systems.

A typical recruiting fee is 30 percent of an employees annual salary.

A typical onboarding process takes weeks or months of paid employee time.

Employees value to a company increases substantially over time due to knowledge of culture, process, etc.

Executives care a lot when company actions cause employees to leave. Human capital is one of the essential ingredients to a successful company.

These things are real money and execs care about the impact on bottom line.

This is typically the most important aspect of an exit interview. In my experience, the employee's reason for leaving is thoroughly examined.

Does "condemning an action" have the same impact?

This is depressing.

Even more depressing is that macOS still doesn't seem to have native containers. (Correct me if I'm wrong - perhaps the sandboxing system can be used as a container system including virtual network interfaces attached to process groups?)

Docker images depend on Linux which means "Docker" on macOS runs in a Linux VM. Presumably docker for Windows could use WSL.

...something like `a > h1`. Anchors wrapping block headings feels...wrong, but it's valid HTML5.

Most browsers will set the inner `h1` as display: block so the click/tap target for the `a` becomes larger. (`h1 > a` with `display: block` would have the same result though).

Also make sure that content isn't being duplicated for the user, `a` and `h1` are waypoints for users. `aria-` attributes can help you here.

This just doesn't square with my lived experience.

Literally just 5 minutes ago a close friend messaged me out of the blue that he got hit with a million dollar bill for going to the hospital for chronic inflammatory progressive demyelinating disease.

Insurance is covering $750,000 of that and he's going to be charged $250,000. Now of course that amount won't be paid (because he just graduated grad school with an art history degree) but there's really no point in him saving any money if a debt collector can seize it at a moment's notice.

I had a friend in high school who got cancer and had insurance. At the 10th anniversary of his death his parents mentioned they were still paying off medicals debts accrued from that. They mentioned half of this was for experimental treatments that they knew were going to be paid out of pocket for. But half was due to standard cancer care that insurance was arguing it shouldn't pay for some reason. Like the hospital using an out of network doctor without telling them type of stuff.

Similar things have happened to myself and my wife, where after paying for care we receive a secondary bill 10 times higher than the first for out of network items we unknowingly consumed.
Global annual battery production has to be first integrated with respect to time and then multiplied by the turn-around time to calculate global annual capacity to ship electricity by way of charged batteries.

> Given the number of developers who spit on the floor as soon as they hear “regex”

> If it is hard to developers, it is impossible to regular users.

What are you talking about? Regular expressions are used everywhere. On the backend it's text parsing, on the front end it's input validation. I have never written a complete application without using it. You're also the first person I've heard grumble about them.

I get that if regex is used in an overly convoluted or messy fashion, they become unreadable and unreliable. Just like assignment operators, nested division, or any other basic programming construct. But they are also remarkably powerful at solving simple pattern matching in a robust way. I recommend you go learn them instead of making baseless claims about "the number of developers who spit on the floor" when talking about them or whatever.

You could create any cloud functions invoking external APIs and run them in Excel, so you could literally do anyhing..
My favorite use-case was pulling data from internal PRIVATE APIs to do statistical analysis...having up-to-date data every time you hit the refresh button was clutch! You could build dashboards inside excel with real-time data and save old data to do time-aware analysis of all kind stuff - literally speeding up so much time.
Everyone knew how to use Excel, but very few people knew how to get API data into it by themselves.

Anyone else was a huge fan?

Talent in one area doesn't translate to the same level of talent in other areas. For instance, Nobel Prize-winner Linus Pauling, called "one of the 20 greatest scientists of all time" by New Scientist, promoted high-dose vitamin C as a cancer treatment long after it had been discredited (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_Pauling#Medical_research...).

Also, IIRC, Chomsky's contributions to linguistics are somewhat controversial, and I've read that his lock on the field may have set it back by decades.

This seems at odds with the multiple open source kubernetes distributions on the market. The problem isn't that Docker is open source infrastructure, the issue was that it remained too low-level as a container daemon, didn't manage to build a large community around swarm, and then were really late to embrace kubernetes.

There easily could have been an alternate history where Docker Inc was the first one out of the gate with an enterprise kubernetes distribution, been a positive part of the community, and been a success.
