So, as I understand it, you're fine with a native app which only works on a single OS, rather than one which is cross-platform and doesn't require any installation?

I honestly don't see the advantage here.
Hey, I have written (long ago!) production CGIs in bash. I’m still perfectly comfortable writing bash code but for most things it’s definitely not the right tool for the job.

Sorry, my point is that I'd prefer if the app didn't crash. I should have said 'when' instead of 'if'.
That forked process to do something that's built-in for free is one of the worst parts about it, the opposite of a gem.
It may have more to do with cost structure. FAANGs have a willingness to pay much higher salaries, even if they could've hired for less than half the cost elsewhere so it makes more sense for them to be in the bay area, especially since those are super high margin businesses. YOu'll notice that Amazon, a business where margins are important is notably absent from the bay area.

Also "early development" can mean in Hollywood something like one or two of these fun examples:

- Someone wrote down an idea on a cocktail napkin

- Someone wrote down an idea on a whiteboard

- Someone made an assistant note to check to see if Joss Whedon was canceled this month, and how busy his calendar looked

- Someone set a golf appointment with a buddy from Universal to discuss Disney maybe acquiring the IP rights to Serenity to get all the IP back under one roof
For when things go wrong in your bash script, I really like the following:

# Enable verbose logging of the bash script
PS4='+ ${BASH_SOURCE:-}:${FUNCNAME[0]:-}:L${LINENO:-}: '
set -x

This improves the tracing function greatly (at the cost of much higher verbosity) in that you get the filename, function, and line number in the output.

What are the ingredients of Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine?
Well that is good then.

The initial content that I had read indicated that it was Grafana Enterprise licences that would be contributed back.

This is a new step for Amazon, which is good. In this case this feels closer to a first-party AWS Marketplace app for Grafana.
Yeah but there was honest competition among newspapers in those days. There wasn't a total monopoly, or corporate consensus, driving so much of the news cycle. I would argue that's the unique feature of today. We've ordained certain news organizations to be The Authority and they all seem to cover the news in exactly the same way. There's no contrarianism. Just the illusion of choice and variety.
I'm with you. I've done big REST APIs and now have a big GraphQL API on my ongoing project, and I wouldn't do GraphQL again for anything I'm working on. The beneficial use cases for GraphQL are far narrower than presented, and the extra overhead compared to REST isn't worth it.
People seem to project their personal biases onto the theoretical permanent societal effects of covid. When covid is over, nothing will have changed about human nature with regards to wanting to go out vs. stay in. At first there will be pent-up desire to go out more frequently, but then things will revert to the norm.

When people see dramatic headlines about businesses shutting down, they fail to look ahead at those businesses eventually getting replaced with new ones to match rising demand.
Does GCP not let you set up a VPN? All instances can have an interface on the VPN so that you log into the VPN and can hit your instance without it being external.
Rebels was basically a Star Wars-ified version of Firefly that targets a different audience.
In this case, I think the generous interpretation is that the poster simply missed that section of the article. The generous interpretation basically requires one to conclude he read it, because otherwise he wouldn't make the connection to deprecation from the title alone.

The article in question is usually not the topic of conversation on HN. It is better to consider it to be the launching point for the conversation. Some will discuss the article, certainly, but you can expect the conversation to branch out very quickly to related items (especially if those items are mentioned in the article). While it's probably not a good idea to discuss the plight of African elephants in these threads, drawing attention to a minor, but specific point in the article is perfectly cromulent.

In this case, the post has value. It does two things. First, it draws attention to a subtopic that was only an aside in the article. (One I happened to miss the first read-through.) Second, the phrasing in the article is somewhat general and vague about this, and the post is relatively more specific and direct.
Installing unsupported add-ons also risks instability. Mozilla didn't restrict the initial list of supported add-ons because they don't want to allow add-ons. They continue to expand the list of add-ons supported in Firefox for Android as more add-ons and APIs are tested.

Mozilla uses Firefox telemetry to fix bugs, identify areas to optimize, and guide product decisions. How else can Mozilla know which devices or problems to prioritize?

it becomes a lot different and realistic goal to achieve. "think DRM!" too. Lawful Interception on "legal comms channels" are then the norm, and e2ee (because it breaks LI) is illegal.

Just do a quick search for "DMPs" or "data management platforms."

Multi-billion dollar industry that's focused on collecting data from many different sources, consolidating, and aligning towards real individuals with a combination of deterministic data and probabilistic assumptions.

Then, they can sell access to that database to various companies, mostly in the ad-tech space.

Source: did consulting work for an ad platform in the RTB space on the DSP side, competitor to Google.

EDIT (more context / sidebar thought): this is also why Apple deserves some credit here for their moves, as they are one of the few companies with enough of a war chest to fight against these multi-BILLION dollar interests. It's the type of advantage I worry about losing if Apple has to open up different app stores on the iPhone: if a developer doesn't want to submit documentation and/or get bad publicity for lack of a privacy label, they'll just go to a different, less strict app store.

This is what we're being told, among other things like Trump voters did not vote by mail, at sometimes like 9 to 1 ratio. But we are told to accept these things as True at face value.

Likewise, we are to Trust and accept the results on Dominion Machines. When the only audit that was permitted to be performed, uncovered a 68% error rate, and logs deleted.

Trust but verify. The verify part has not really been done. We are only told to Trust.
So, you want something like,

It's weird right? I mean if you were the Neverware people you're just updating your customers about this change. In steps a third party like HN and publishes that announcement, and suddenly it's this out of context, wtf is this moment for tens of thousands of people.
I believe it is a matter of taste and experience. Some people prefer to read & edit 3-4 concise lines, and some prefer ten pages of prose.

> I think the popularity of Python for scripting is pretty good evidence that PG was dead wrong on the importance of brevity in programming languages.

IMO Python has a fair number of brevity constructs, which was it's one of the selling points, besides keeping other things readable. If you look at the published code from the research community, many of it resembles Matlab or Mathematica's style.
Illinois is pretty rough financially, I agree. But it's home to one of the three cities you can realistically live in and call a city in the US. As in no car ownership required, walkable neighborhoods that you never need to leave very often as all your needs are met, etc. This is exceedingly rare in the US, almost non-existent.

So for now, I'll stick with Chicago. Should I move, I completely agree the IL suburbs are completely pointless - I can get the same quality of life cheaper almost anywhere in the US. A suburb is a suburb after all, so things like tax rates and property value are all you really need to make much of a decision on.

Is it? The use of markdown is to prevent having to write out html tags for formatting. And in the end, HTML will be one of the target outputs. Even sites that accept HTML directly, are doing so through the use of a Javascript WYSIWYG editor.
If they're anything like the "journalists" we might see on Twitter, I have a hard time believing they're dignified people covering these events in a professional manner. I see a lot of hyperemotionality, hero-of-the-people complexes, and instigation of conflict and controversy among these types. I'm sure it is a significant boost to their cred to be arrested, especially under the current administration.
At least that's a tangible good worth the money it costs (ethics and cultural norms aside.) Her point still stands, that most functioning adults would not spend $100 on something like that without at least thinking it through. But a kid with zero concept of earning income would certainly click that button with no extra thought.
Aws, azure, gcp by market share. We went GCP, overall it's not moving as fast as the others but they are working on that. The services are extremely stable. If you use the PaaS products by cautious, Google's product management has gaps. Their Api gateway portfolio is a mess. I just heard Dialogflow now has a new product called CX, not backwards compatible and no port options either.
> One anecdote, 10 years ago, I went to a birthday party, a time where I hated social gatherings pretty much. Yet the day after I felt 'replenished' of somethings. As if my internal world couldn't satisfy me fully and even dreaded parties were benefitial.

I'm the same way towards social gatherings. As a result, I try to remind myself before going to one that I may hate that feeling of dread leading up to it, but that on the other side of it I am going to feel great. That doesn't mean I can be social all the time, but I think even introverts need that regular dose of social activity to feel whole. If anything, it makes those alone times we enjoy even more valuable as there's a contrast.

You're not wrong. I think OP is a generalized rant that is a bit dismissive of problem solving diversity. I think OP's gist is: if you don't understand a tool, don't use it. But even that is specious.

Normal regular expressions have been around since Kleene, Chomsky and Russell started framing them in the 40s/50s. They are a powerful tool for lexical analysis, PERL showed us that in the early 90's. Dismissing them is just gatekeepy, IMHO.
The 'mainstream' media for lack of a better term has built a nicely sized moat around themselves. Remember, if someone has to run ad campaigns about how 'honest' or 'truthful' journalists they are - run away.
> The police were attempting to intimidate and silence them is the honest answer.

> likely none of them committed any actual crimes

What makes you say that?
I don’t think it’s just you. I tensed up a little when I first saw the name as well.
Yes, that is a big problem. People don't seem to learn their lesson. CA peoples leave CA and go to austin and we're already seeing some of the same things happening there as in CA, where housing supply is restricted and of course, at that point housing prices go up again.

People just never learn the fundamentals of economics and how those decisions lead to economic hardship for so many, that's the real problem.

What's the difference between "losing it" and "it doesn't remain"? I didn't say GraphQL lost the feature, I said it lost the advantage.

I see also the paper says, in bold, "it is unfair to attribute the gains observed with GraphQL only to the IDE", but elsewhere they trumpet the ability of the IDE to interpret and enforce the schema as significant. And again, we can accept that the feature is useful without conceding that GraphQL has the advantage. We could just as well have an IDE that understands OpenAPI specs an accomplish the same thing.
I don't know, some higher entry Hyundais are not exactly cheap either, especially if you prefer to buy vehicles cash.
I agree with this. I've been running a mission critical Grafana dashboard for a long time now. It took about 15 minutes to setup, and not once in 3+ years has there ever been any maintenance required.

Moving to a different server (or cloning for HA redundancy) takes maybe 5 minutes to copy the JSON and make a crontab entry. It's pretty much the lowest headache software imaginable.

> I wonder if there's any countries that specifically recognise people as journalists?

There are, and it usually is a bad thing. Making it "official" is an easy way to gatekeep speech rights.
> totally anecdotal, but I've seen more than few instances of police brutalizing press members like other protesters unfortunately.

This is one of those situations where the opposite would be even worse: if the police were roughing up protesters just for being in the wrong place, but leaving journalists alone to keep them onside...

Most of the mega-chain theatres were in rough shape two years prior to the pandemic.

I, personally, don't believe that the film exhibition format will go completely away. I think it will return to being owned by the major studios with a sprinkling of localized art-house theatres in cities that can support them.
Over-the-counter home test for Covid-19 gets US green light
Its precisely that statement that makes me sure that movie theaters are not going anywhere, they make a ton of money for studios and alot of people like the experience. Once the vaccine is out and cases have dropped I will be back in the theaters to watch Dune, the new Avatar movies etc.
Ok that makes more sense, so in theory a GPU for the SNES.
I have a variation where I start with no problems. But someone thinks I have a problem (in reality they have the problem). So I need to create a bunch of complex debug code to test the situation. Of course the debug code has bugs. Now I have a bunch of debugging to do on my debugging code itself. To prove there's no bug.
Yes you can go on vpn or direct connect or bastion host to hit vms on private ip but their cloud shell thingy couldn’t do that last time i checked
Gecko is architected to be used as a framework, not a library, which means it tries to dictate a lot of aspects of how your code is supposed to be structured. Whereas Webkit/Blink is the other way around.

It predates KHTML/Webkit by several years so some additional legacy baggage is to be expected.
I've done some googling, and can't find any instances were a journalist was actually convicted. All I can find is instances that they weren't charged or charges were dropped.
Just curious what would you call a fancy car. My experience has been that the difference is very marginal at highend.
I don't consider myself lonely.

However, I sometimes find myself getting wrapped up in hypothetical, imaginary social situations (especially when lying awake in bed) - usually reacting angrily.

Not sure what that's about.
My sense is that GraphQL makes the impossible stuff hard and the easy stuff hard.

So its relative merits have a lot to do with how complicated a thing you're trying to do in the first place.

why were these journalists arrested? Did these journalists actually commit a crime?

The article contains this info at a high level and links to more in-depth info about it. Some jurisdictions make arrests public, btw. And all you need to make an arrest is "probable cause", so you might not always get a satisfying answer about why a journalist was arrested. Since you're asking honestly, I'm going to be honest with you. We're talking about well over 100 arrests here. It's dishonest to lump all these situations together and the HN community is not equipped to give you the info you seek anyway. Arrest records are, court records are, first hand reports are, and it is relatively easy to find this stuff, if you're honestly curious. Since this happened so recently, you can also reach out to the people directly involved. Some reports may contradict each other. Some common threads may appear.

Do you actually have to commit a crime or can you be arrested as part of crowd control technique and released later?

You can be arrested without committing a crime.

Will they be charged with something in court?

As some of these are fairly recent matters and court systems are moving slowly due to the pandemic, the answer to your last question might not be clear at this time. This will be public record if they are.
The fact that the cops arrested people observing from their front porches?

Can dairy farming ever be sustainable?
Likely not all of the impurities. Those with boiling temperature similar to water will probably mostly remain (it's more complex than that).

A better question would be: Are there dangerous levels of contaminants in after a single distillation pass? For municipal water - probably not. For chemical factory effluent - probably yes. Plastic pipes after wildfires - no idea.

Also, you need to add something to distilled water, as it's shocking to a body. Almost anything will do, though you may need to think about mineral content in the longer term.
The end of an era. Sad to see. First IMDB and now GoodReads. So much for open data. Thanks for the bait and switch. Good thing we trusted them with our data.

> enterprise value-add can be replicated by a two pizza team and that team is cheaper than your licensing fees

This is always easier if the starting point of that two-pizza team is fairly close to "clone the version that already works, change the name, and run the deploy script".

There is a huge difference between you doing something for your in-house use, and Amazon doing something in order to turn around and re-sell it.
