I'm not sure what prompted you to pin this view on Western philosophy in particular, as plenty of other cultures and philosophies value asceticism.

Also, it's not like hedonism doesn't have downsides, such as the common effect of needing ever more extreme stimulation to achieve the pleasure you could once achieve with less extreme stimulation, leading to a spiral of debauchery which often has deleterious consequences to the hedonist, even if you overlook the pain and suffering they often have to cause others to please themselves.

There's a reason that so many philosophers throughout history and from different cultures have advocated moderation, but the hedonist has trouble moderating themselves because then they have to do things that aren't pleasurable.

There are also advantages to asceticism, from the (debatable but potentially valid) spiritual benefits, to achieving self-mastery and control, not getting too attached to pleasure or comfort when it could be easily taken away from you, etc...

In any case, the case for hedonism is far from a slam dunk, and you'd really have to do a lot more work to make that case convincingly. Just saying that "Western Philosophy" is against it is not very convincing.
Why do web services use so many domains?
It is common to see content on the web being loaded from many different domains all owned by the company providing the service or site. Today this really reached a new level of absurdity for me:

I received an email that indicated I had been given access to a OneDrive share. It was a little sketchy so I decided to navigate to the base domain and login. Examining the URL I find sharepoint.com. The next steps followed:

1. sharepoint.com redirected to microsoft.com
2. Clicking "login" took me to live.com
3. Entering my username and pressing enter took me to microsoftonline.com
4. Entering may password and pressing enter took me to office.com (and the Office dashboard)
5. I go back to my email and click the link, which takes me to a logged in page on sharepoint.com with OneDrive branding.

This took me a bit because it was sketchy being bounced from domain to domain during a simple login process so I checked the cert each time.

I know this Microsoft stuff is an extreme example but it happens everywhere under the hood. I see this a lot with javascript and content: Sketchy domains that look a lot like the company's frontline domain but shorter or slightly different.

What engineering rationale is there for this convoluted implementation that trains users to ignore the URL bar? What happened to having a single trusted domain that all services live under?

When I lived in Berlin, on the second floor, the pipes for the Radiators were not insulated. Never turned up the heat in kitchen or bathroom.

But on the yearly utilities bill you usually pay 50:50 or 70:30 usage : area. So all of the energy cost of the house is taken and even if your neighbors heat for you, you pay for it.

Ask HN: Gmail Down (Again)?
I am currently receiving the following when trying to email myself:

Your message wasn't delivered to xxxxxx@gmail.com because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail.

(I am currently logged in to the gmail address it is telling me does not exist, and am sending the email from another gmail account.)
It is funny how I seldom see these articles become relevant either in HN or mainstream media, issues like these always get buried in favor of hype.

Tylenol is over-the-counter, while you need a doctor to prescribe narcotics.

As such, Tylenol overdose is more common. The labels are very clear about how much to take, but when you're in chronic pain, you may not be thinking much about the warning stickers or labels.

SF exists, for better or worse, in a Goldilocks zone where mediocre housing and clothing will still suffice for the climate. It gets cold, but rarely deadly cold. It gets hot, but rarely deadly hot. It gets wet, but mostly via fog. It gets windy, but not to hurricane force. Visitors regularly get faked out by the advertised mild weather and get the experience of a windy, cold grey SF summer in shorts - which is survivable but unpleasant. You can't last the entire year that way - rough sleepers do die from exposure in the harshest weeks - but it's "enough" to have some enclosure and warm socks in the winter and some ventilation for the fall heat waves.

And the constant backdrop of humidity can't be overemphasized in why it's unpleasant. Extreme dry temperatures kill you, mild wet ones make you feel dead.

This may also explain the age and quality of its housing stock, which is often a combination of moldy and drafty. There isn't an incentive pushing regulation further, so the landowners have their pick of NIMBY policies that keep old stock in the mix.

I was part of "big corp" for the past three years and was involved in many bug bounty reports. A reasonable claim like "I think this should be higher because XYZ" gets investigated and, if justified, higher bounties issued.

This blog post seems a bit one-sided and doesn't correlate to the facts that I have heard. I wasn't there at the time being so I don't know the truth. But that blog post seems not quite 100% to be it.

What I have seen, however, in the past years, is that some people omit facts or misrepresent things to get some press. So I am quite a cynic on blog posts like this :-)
>you simply consider it bad per sē that sex be treated as a service that can be sold for whatever price the market might dictate.

Yes, exactly.
You're talking about 3 very different things here.

1) You're saying social media isn't opt in because they're tracking users off of their social media platform. This doesn't have anything to do with social media, but rather the pages you're going to have chosen to use a service provided by Facebook to track users. They could use another behavior targeting service, but chose Facebook's.

2) You're saying Instagram deletion didn't work. It sounds like you deactivated it instead of deleted it. I haven't heard this be an issue (it'd be widely reported if it were)

3) You're saying it's not opt-in because people refer to it in the news. In that case, nothing is opt-out because people have the right to refer to anything they want. Making this opt-out would mean censoring other people from saying things online or referring to things online, because of your views.
It’s called Paracetamol in the UK. We can only buy small packs of it (16 tablets or so) to try and prevent things like this. It’s very very rare to see Paracetamol issues in the UK news.

A great man, a crying shame.
All you've done is deploy the existing documentation on your own service and change the links on the GitHub repository to point to your service rather than the GitHub documentation (with no indication of how one would keep this in sync with updates).

Sure, it makes navigating this version of the docs slightly easier, but this doesn't seem to be a good-faith attempt at actually improving the documentation so much as promoting your service.
Looking at gene mutations is looking at hard data and only seeing one piece of the puzzle. To go from mutations -> behavioral differences -> evolutionary bio explanation is not something we can do scientifically.

Neither Paracetamol (Tylenol) nor Ibuprofen (Advil) is side-effect free - and thus you should stick to prescribed amounts unless you've received medical advice.

Having said that, given I am not a doctor/clinician/pharmacologist/pharmacist, you can usually alternate them to take a higher dosage of pain relief.
> In your last four code blocks, you demonstrated three alternate ways to implement the functionality you want without defer.

My, I didn't think it was possible to miss the point like that. Are you even arguing in good faith? Let's examine for a moment the 3 other alternatives.

First, we get the "repeat ourselves" problem: when I have several exit points, I must clean up at each exit. And if I edit the code in any way, (for instance by adding yet another check), I must review everything that has been initialised until this point and clean it up there again. This might be okay if I have only 1 or 2 exit points, but if I have more this is clearly unacceptable.

Second, we have goto. We replace our exit points by a goto cleanup. That one at least can scale. I don't like it however for three reasons. First, the cleanup code is at the end, far from the init code, so checking that the two pairs together correctly is inconvenient. Second, I need to manage an additional variable for the return value. Third, goto is banned in a lot of places, no matter how convoluted the alternatives may be.

Third, we have this monstrous pyramid if else that wastes horizontal space, requires you to re-indent everything at the slightest edit, separates cleanup code from init code, and is just plain ugly. The only thing going for it is the single exit point, and frankly it isn't much.

---

Those "alternatives" are anything but. They're what we have to do when faced with a limited language that doesn't express what we want to say. Workarounds, not solutions.

> minor syntax adjustments

Your perspective must be seriously warped if you're calling the function-wide reorganisation I spoke of "minor syntax adjustments". Or you're not arguing in good faith.

> The real answer to "why defer?", of course, is that the authors need it to implement panic/recover.

That is a separate point, which I think I agree with. Me, I just want a way to trigger an instruction when we exit the current scope. It's the necessary complement to `break` and `return`, which provide ways to exit scope before the end of the block. We could get rid of them, and apply a straightjacket structured programming discipline of course, but personally, I don't think I'm ready to give up on `break` and `return`.

Johnson & Johnson recalled every single bottle of Tylenol and re-designed the packaging. Actually worked out pretty well for the brand and they sold more after the murders than before.

Also that was 38 years ago.
Reading this whole thread, it almost seems like an opioid or an opioid combined with naloxone (suboxone?) would be rather safer than tylenol/acetaminophen. At least with opioids, the risk of overdose is far more widely understood, and a remedy to overdoses (naloxone) exists, in case it happens. There is the downside of its addictiveness, but in particularly severe cases of patients suffering from really bad pain, it sounds like controlled, limited doses of opioid-based pain killers might be safer? I'm not a doctor, I'm just wondering.
Arguably the US election was an information processing and management exercise, thus relevant to the HN audience.

That camel’s nose is leading the morass of “just politics” into the HN tent. I propose a moratorium of non-IT politics (arguably a large chunk of political activity, but just a subset) on HN for the next few months to decontaminate the feed. Just a proposal for the mods...

As someone taking a lot of Tylenol after a car accident a week ago, thanks for the advice!

I'll switch to Ibuprofen now. They didn't give me any prescription meds because there were no broken bones, but my chest and left shoulder are in so much pain, specially when I wakeup. Airbags were deployed, and I went from 84 mph to zero when the crash happened (dashcam had the speed on it).
i would prefer the train for almost any travel of less than 5 hours, that’s a 1200km radius on HSR, the thing is that Barcelona - Paris is 120€ by plane and 250 by train. Planes are way cheaper than trains.
Pichai Sundararajan, is head of Google a Indian running a American Company. look at IBM, it has been sold, every job has been shifted to India how many White people are working for IBM since it has been sold ? 80% less. because they replaced with the local indian workforce.

i think the tiny minority, should really stop this nonsense, you can not simply put every minority everywhere just because of your skin.

how many whites are working for TATA ? or are head of office in a minority company ????? zero .

you are a minority, you can't be in all positions its a honest fact.
The channel name is not the problem. The problem is that people will go to whatever channel they want and ignore any "official" support system. It's the same as the guy in sales who comes to your desk to bug you about something he promised a customer. He knows he's supposed to go through channels, but he's going to do what he wants, regardless of mechanism.

To be clear, the message (which I'm passing on second-hand, I'm not a doctor myself!) wasn't that you shouldn't take Tylenol, just that you need to be careful with the dosage. My father in particular thinks Tylenol is better than Advil if used regularly over decades (although he'd probably say it depends on other health conditions too; both are safe medicines overall.)

I bet you have a feature in your backlog to automate adding things like the legal disclaimer at the beginning of that podcast. Having that read in a very unexcited voice set the tone, unfortunately. But, so much opportunity here, nice work!
Punish won't do anything.

You can't punish lack of ability, just like you don't punish someone for scoring a B at school.

Everything happens after the fact, and no one knows what the next breach will be. And that will continue until the your average Joe's system no longer has 100 vendors each ordained by high management that basically acts as malware themselves.

Someone even started blaming the H1Bs, the mentality is amusing - fix nothing and find blame first and (often) blame it on the wrong thing - I'm glad I don't work for an organization that has the same mentality. Though I can certainly see many of the largest companies and a large percent of people have the exact MO. That also needs to change.
So what do you think is going on in this piece (5 years old), where Alex Stamos characterizes the issue as "trivial and of little value"?

> Facebook has big pockets. As a bug bounty hunter, I'd not worry about being screwed by them. It's by far one of the best paying bounty programs.

I don't think the middle sentence is related to the other two. Every company I triaged for had deep pockets. I routinely saw payouts in excess of $1,000 and not uncommonly several thousand. I don't recall ever seeing one that hit $10,000. But what I'm describing above are ways for the company to screw the researcher without really being motivated by stinginess. Fairness is not a concern.
You are absolutely right. I am utterly sorry. We will work on a fully-compatible Links (the browser) version of the site as penitence.
Usually people (ab)use default visibility modifier for unit testing. It's not public, so it's not visible from other packages, but unit tests usually reside in the same package, so you have full access to it.

I'm not claiming it's a fully apt comparison; rather, that if one supports a principle of "it is entirely out of scope for government to force private businesses to transact against their will", with no other qualifiers, that would necessarily preclude the CRA as well.

It's a different stance to say "the government is allowed to force transactions where one party is unwilling, but only where the unwillingness is related to identity rather than actions". (Though even that distinction can blur: a religious person banned for sharing "my faith teaches that life begins at conception" could hardly be blamed for interpreting the act as being based on their protected-class religious identity, rather than their speech as such.)

CloudABI (https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi) was an interesting attempt at doing just that. However it seems it didn't gain enough traction and people involved veered towards wasm/wasi which also abstracts over the instruction set (at the expense of performance, unless I'm missing some development on the AOT front)
IIRC you can take them both on interleaved but overlapping schedules, for those times when the maximum frequency of advil isnt good enough. Check on that before doing it though.

I (sincerely) don't understand responses like yours.

You are arguing against a red herring.

To be clear the definition is: "A red herring is something that misleads or distracts from a relevant or important question.

People have accepted the term "web advertising" as "showing product images" or something similar.

"web advertising" is actually identification of the individual viewing a web page, matching it to an online database of other information about that person, tracking and recording that person's behavior, and the sale of information about that person to others.

Putting an attractive woman next to a car is small potatoes next to the darkness of identification and surveillance.
I think we may look back at this period in history as a time of innovation in social information and interaction. Surely the telegraph and telephone had some impact but the scale with which people are able to communicate has changed radically in the last 20 years. It's impossible for us to know now but I think we will look back at Facebook or Twitter and wonder "how did that work?" in much the same way we look at a party line today.

Genuine question: what's the benefit here over some cache plugins. In particular over cache plugins that work even before php is invoked by editing the .htaccess file and son.
