> It would be much easier for many users to be able to say "starts with x", "ends with y", "has abc in the middle" as 3 separate statements than to have to derive the regex that does it.

This seems like a less error-prone and more testable way of writing regular expressions in code too! Writing out the individual portions of a regular expression might be a ton more verbose, but it's because regular expressions hide a ton of complexity with "write-only" shorthand.

For me, anger is usually something internal. And in moments of anger, I can often get emotional insights that I might not otherwise have gotten. I think that eradicating anger can actually blind you to important signals your subconscious is trying to tell you.

Without anger, I might never have the agency to quit a job that makes me miserable, or put up with emotional abuse.

It is often easier to excuse or not even see unfair treatment. You matter too, and pushing back against unfairness or injustice does not make you a bully. Sometimes you have to raise stand tall and raise your voice.

It is a real challenge to harness anger but also not take it too far, and I think you are just giving up if you forgo anger completely.

This article goes into some more detail about this:

Yes, I don't think Buddhist monks claim that they are robots. What matter is your reaction to your emotions.

I believe that anger is a signal. But anger can be really dangerous and addictive. However, it does have a place in the human experience, but you should learn to listen to your anger when it really matters.
I'd wager that it'd most likely be a less violent society, considering that poverty is closely linked to violence.

Bingo. Billionaires and large corporations are what's holding us back from the future Keynes envisioned, where we'd be working ~15 hours a week.

I’m not following your logic here. How does driving a bidding war constitute “mind games”? How does your own internal sense of value affect the offers you get? This is just Negotiation 101.
I asked a flight school instructor about a part 107 license a while back and his response was "you want one? say the word and you'll have it by lunch." The only requirement is passing a written exam which he said was very easy compared to the private pilot exam.

The hardest thing about getting the part 107 license might actually be getting the identification form signed, since it needs to be done by an official. If you take the exam at a flight school they'll probably offer to have a CFI do it for you (for a fee I'm sure), but if you take the exam at a non-flight-specific testing center you might have to make a trip to a FSDO or call a CFI and see if they'll do it. It would help with the accessibility of the 107 license if they got rid of the somewhat arcane proof of identity rules inherited from other pilot's licenses.

Bitcoin adoption was growing and working well for monetary transfer but its capacity was throttled to encourage use of an unproven technology, the lightning network.

The claim, as far as understand it, is that Blockstream supported this plan, anticipating its failure, while working on its own replacement technology, Liquid.

Ironically, both liquid and lightning appear to be failing. Nb, both grubles and nullc have some close relationship with Blockstream.

> You don't even need the absolute latest drives to get reasonable storage volumes. Some careful shopping can net you an LTO-5 (1.5TB native capacity) library unit (one that can be upgraded to newer generations) for under $500, with new tapes $10-15 each.

That's still... pretty terrible. If we compare you costs for a tape drive against a 14TB easystore @ $190[1], the break-even point is around 72TB. I don't know about you, but that's of data you have to store for it to be worth it. Even at 150TB you're only looking at around ~25% (~$500) in savings compared to hard drive, which I don't think is much when you factor in how much of a hassle tape drives are to work with.

> After all, people with a lot of free time, guaranteed "income" and a lack of driving goals seems the perfect candidate pool for cults.

From my own experience with a borderline cult, the people most vulnerable to cults are ones that have had trauma of some sort. Economic prosperity was kind of all across the board, now that I reflect on it. I do agree that "lack of driving goal" is a big factor.

Not an expert on this topic; I just think it's an interesting tangent: what exactly are the biggest factors that make someone susceptible to joining a cult?
Show HN: CraZe – Colorful and relaxing drawing app
Hi! I'm the creator of an app named CraZe, which allows you to make psychedelic, colorful, and relaxing drawings.

The basic premise is the usual mandala app, in which you have rotations, symmetries, colors, etc. But the twist is that there's a lot of parameters and effects and shapes that can be combined to create special results!

The combinatorial explosion of parameters makes it so the possibilities are near infinite.

There's color palettes that change dynamically, geometric shapes that can change in size and orientation and alignment, fading that can be enabled so that you can draw endlessly without the screen filling up, undo, redo, etc.

You can see images and videos from the app here:
https://instagram.com/crazeapp

And you can use it for iOS, Android, and web browsers.

I've also created a portal for app information and store links:
https://craze.app

Any feedback you have from the apps is very much welcome,

Thank you very much for reading this!

> but there's really no such thing as a mail server for non-technical people.

Sure, and digital cameras used to be challenging for non-techies to use, and you used to need to understand port forwarding to use ICQ. There's no law that it needs to stay that way. It would take a lot of work, but the benefits would be enormous.

I guess to put it another way, what I'm saying is, when I take a cute picture of my kids and want to send it to Grandma, what I want to do is put it on a $5/mo VPS instead of putting it on Facebook for free (or "free"). But I also don't want to be a part-time sysadmin or set up a private blog and configure it and walk Grandma through authenticating to it - I want it to just work. Which raises the obvious question, "Well who will pay to make this amazing software?" which has an equally obvious answer: whoever sells $5/mo VPSes.

edit to add: I personally would run such a thing on the server in my basement, but the realistic way for such a thing to exist (both in the sense of someone paying to develop it, and in the sense of millions of people to use it) is for it to be mainly run on cheapo cloud instances. It is the answer to the question "What use would a non-technical person have for their own cloud server?" which is a question I would think that Bezos et al would very much like to answer.

> Kim and Sejnowski found that good working memory required both that long-timescale neurons be prevalent, and that connections between inhibitory neurons–which suppress brain activity–be strong. When they altered the strength of connections between these inhibitory neurons in their model, the researchers could change how well the model performed on the working memory test as well as the timescale of the pertinent neurons.

Neuroscience is so laughably primitive. Imagine saying you were close to understanding computers because you know which capacitors you really can’t cut out. It’s just absurd how little actual knowledge of the mind we have, as opposed to anatomical facts or behavioral generalizations.
> If we can automate 90% of manual and low-skip labor, who makes up the remaining population responsible for completing those tasks and how are they incentivized to continue performing those tasks?

Well, supposing it's all automated, who cares if people perform the tasks or not?

More seriously, however, what's the actual incentive to automate "unskilled" labor? Computers are terrible at tasks we find simple, like folding laundry, and the labor of laundry workers is cheap.

I think the rest of your hypotheticals are really not of much consequence. If we develop AI diagnostic machines, why do you assume there won't be human doctors, if only to act as researchers? When horses were retired from farming, what was the incentive to maintain the combines and harvesters?

Oh, I think we’ll see Biden add a whole bunch of names to the Magnitsky Act sanctions list, recommit to NATO, and look for additional punitive economic sanctions — probably via third countries — to squeeze the siloviki at the center of Russian power. But I agree that Nord Stream 2’s a done deal, despite strong and unusually-bipartisan US opposition. Don’t know how long it’ll take Russia to finish the work, but looks like they’re headed for the home stretch.
Humans don't need work as we know it in the 21st century, but humans don't do well without work in the general sense. There are plenty of things to do that could even be useful to society that aren't modern wage work.
Show HN: Folo: Form and Layout JavaScript Components
I work as a dev for a company that provides services for hotels. For me, the best API which we discovered this year was a CRUD API for handling i18n keys in our system. We were using our in-house solution to keep translation keys in SQL together with translations. The support team was maintaining the translations, and we as a dev team were responsible for translation keys and own translation editor. This year my colleague found an app called SimpleLocalize which provides a simple CRUD API, and translation editor for a fairly good price (important factor due to COVID). We removed our submodule for translation management (which was buggy as hell) and switched totally to the simple CRUD. Feels good man. We cut 1/10 of code which was mainly used by our translation management.

I don’t need a change in perspective. I need original research (or a summary thereof) on the implementation of universal basic income, controlled deflation of the housing and education loan bubbles, redistribution of resources (money, income, “wealth”, land, power), and a one hundred year plan to deal with the loss of NYC and London to the oceans. Something a little more substantial.

"Call to order! We have here before us a motion to assign the task of deciding whether to remove 'Hello World' as a program from the documentation, given the ambiguity of its semantics. We have a second...the ayes have it, motion approved."

Or more like, "Here, let us nibble away at this $400k cheese, and by the time we get through the paperwork decide to make anything we'll hire someone on Fiverr to do a cornflower blue logo, but it will be SVG so they know we're serious.""

Yes, sort of, as is Freedombox and Urbit and probably a few others. So another way of phrasing my post is that I'm surprised Jeff Bezos (or one of his ilk) hasn't gotten tired of waiting for Sandstorm/Urbit/etc to get good enough for my grandma to use, and just assigned 5k dev-years to the project.

Why not get a license? It’s really easy and will take you half a day.
The incentive to automate unskilled labor is the same as automating anything else - not having to pay employees who are limited by biological needs like food and sleep or protected by labor laws.

Laundry workers may be cheap, but automated laundry workers working 24/7/365 will eventually be cheaper at scale. Amazon is as efficient at exploiting human labor as it's possible to be, but they're absolutely working to put those humans out of work as quickly as possible.

Yeah, I've seen some similar problems with my Surface Book 2.

I didn't see this initially, but I now see frequent, .5-to-3 second lagging response to the touchpad, seemingly fixable only by reboot. Googling suggests a lot of other folks have seen a similar problem. For my machine, there's no lag from the touchscreen or from an external mouse...only the touchpad.

Re your USB problems...I'm not sure if I've seen that specific error, but I have noticed that I simply cannot plug in two external USB cameras and expect them both to work. The first one plugged in always works, the second appears as a device, but no software I own can get an image off of it (where the same two cameras can easily be used by other Windows boxes).

And, yes, I've also seen multi-screen problems when I put it to sleep with no external monitor and try to wake it up after it's plugged into the external monitor (plugged in through a USB-C hub). Basically, I had to plug in the monitor after it woke to avoid this.

Also...the detachable screen is a cool concept, but given that the seemingly larger portion of the battery life is in the keyboard half, and that the screen half has no power or USB ports, it really blunts the applications I might have put the detachable screen to.

Yes, definite problems here. I've wondered if I would've been happier with the Surface Laptop rather than the Surface Book.
"Moreover, studies from Canada, New Zealand, and Australia (at least for the first post-NFA years) show that observed reductions in firearm suicides, after the implementation of these laws, were compensated by substitution methods that resulted in no significant changes in overall suicide rates."

This is from a giant meta-study that is often cited by advocates for more gun control (incorrectly, in my view, given the conclusions of the study):
https://epirev.oxfordjournals.org/content/38/1/140.full.pdf+...

Canadian gun control laws are increasingly bordering on totalitarian. Given the general level of ignorance on firearms issues among the majority of Canadians who don't own firearms (and don't know much about them), I expect the laws to get much, much worse than they are even today. Even though I have been thoroughly vetted and done training and been tested, there are about 1,000 arbitrary and stupid ways in which I can be criminally charged for things that are not actually dangerous.

The recent arbitrary ban on "scary" semi-automatic rifles is a perfect example of this point. Because many of these rifles are classed as "restricted", and thus registered along with requiring more onerous licensing requirements, they are trivially easy to confiscate - this allows the government to score a political victory by appearing to be tackling gun violence, while ultimately threatening with criminal punishment Canadians who have attempted to be insanely diligent in following the law. The story that these guns have no purpose other than to kill people is simply a lie, a brazen one at that considering that the Prime Minister himself has owned such guns over the years.

Long guns, particularly legally-acquired restricted long guns, are used in homicides so rarely that it wouldn't be statistically significant. Legally-acquired handguns are also almost never used in crime or homicide.

Guns are also an important part of Canadian culture, and historically were a symbol of self-sovereignty: the ability to put food on the table and protect your family are simply part and parcel to living life on the frontier. Many in the city have apparently forgotten this in a sea of pleasant conveniences, but it is still a way of life for those of us who have chosen a life of self-sufficiency. (I used to live in a big city, btw)

Honestly, given the statistics on the prevalence of firearms vs. their use in violent encounters in this country, the fear many Canadians have of firearms is highly irrational.
