This is brilliant! I love the idea and would be willing to contribute if possible. I agree we don't need another social network where new content is posted. We need a way to sift through the large amount of existing content out there.

My questions:

1) How do you plan on getting content from reddit/twitter/hackernews? Are there api's for this or do you plan to scrape?

2) Would other social sites have issues with you using their content in your social stock market, and possibly profiting from it?

3) Would it be possible for a social network to cut you off and kill your business? For Example: Reddit realized that they are losing traffic because more people are going to [yourSite].com to view Reddit content so they sue you.
Not related. I know a few people that are both really smart and the worst case evangelists. The issue is not so much technical as it is cultural. It is really annoying being invited in someone's church in order to have your soul saved. As someone with disability, I have it more than others.
I'd gladly use DDG but they still suck compared to Google when it comes to searching for anything dev related.
My working theory of the eigentweet is that it's more internal than people "wanting to target this audience." I don't think it requires much if any outside influence or explicit bad faith. (I'm a moderator on a non-American political subreddit, so most of my opinions below come from my own observations and musings.)

Instead, the decay of social media happens as the platform transitions from a place where one talks with people to a place where one talks at people.

If I reply to your political thoughts by telling you off, I'm probably not trying to convince you to change your mind. Instead, I'm performing for the attention (and upvotes / retweets / kind comments) of like-minded peers.

That's obviously alienating for the person who gets attacked, but this kind of performance is also self-radicalizing. The validating reinforcement preferentially goes to the strongest attacks or defenses, favouring rhetoric (as you noted) rather than substance.

One of the few things that suppresses this cycle is exactly what HN does reasonably well: have the community be about something else, diluting political content such that there's less often a chain-reaction.
Have you evaluated their motivation or basis for their conviction?

Or are you not open to the idea that a "Jesus Lover" could be a person of character and conviction like yourself, but from a different perspective?
This kind of down to earth advice with a medium amount of technical explanation is fantastic.

One thing I would mention is that rigid fiberglass corner traps seemed to do a lot in my studio.

Also if you are going to talk about room modes, you are also going to want to think about the permeability of your walls and whether they are going to even reflect the frequency in question and set up a mode.

And also we may want to make a distinction between making a listening environment that sounds amazing, and one that has utility. It can be easy for an intermediate or beginner at mixing to get really tricked by a great listening environment in to doing things that won’t translate.

On the other hand, life is short, and listening to a beautiful set up is just a better quality of life if nothing else.

> The author is lazy, and is channeling his energy into complaining rather than learning.

I don't know about that. The author is certainly confusing programming with setting up a development environment. I can understand why they would be frustrated with the latter, since it takes away with what they are trying to do.

When I started out, the latter was fairly simplistic: computers booted into BASIC. If you needed something more sophisticated, you could buy an IDE where everything would run right off the boot disk or after an automated installation. You can still find those tools, designed to serve everyone from home users to professional developers. That being said, it seems to be much less common.

In some cases, like web development, that makes sense. The target is a standard rather than an operating system or hardware architecture. In other cases it is self-inflicted. When you choose to work with third party libraries, there is a much higher probability that some work will need to be done to integrate it. Then there is the WTF category.

Take one of the easier cases: Java. Even though the development model is much closer to traditional languages like C++, the most common use case will involve installing an IDE and the language separately (possibly with some tweaking of the environment). That's not too bad, but it's likely more than people want to see when they want to get their tools up and running. Contrast that to C++ on a commercial operating system: you install Visual Studio or Xcode and are ready to focus upon programming for the chosen platform.

Of course, C++ isn't always like that and it comes close to representing the other extreme. Setting up development tools for microcontrollers can be quite the task, particularly if you choose the "wrong" one. That's a good part of the reason why novices like Arduino and Platform IO, it makes going from nothing to a functional IDE fairly straightforward.

Now I'm not going to say that the author is right, but I will admit that they have a point. Presenting Unix-isms in a macOS installer is going to rub some people the wrong way. That should have been addressed in a better manner. On the other hand, they were also attempting to accomplish something that is non-trivial to start with.

Not sure about Sweden but I don't believe many retail banks make buying t-bills as easy as a click of a button, unless you were using their brokerage.

Few laymen are excited about converting their cash to t-bills. But digital currencies like CBDCs are part of the cryptocurrency wave that has a lot more of the general population interested.

Assuming the OP meant "setting up a pipeline for moving data from one system to another" and not a one-time copy, it is definitely engineering.
It's worth pointing out that the Phoenix Web Framework (which LiveView is built on) came into being because the creator Chris McCord tried to build something like LiveView in Ruby and eventually ran into fundamental limitations due to how concurrency was handled. He looked around, discovered Elixir and the rest is history.

I'm very interested to learn what has changed since then that made this possible, or made it work better. Or whether those problems are just being "lived with".

Chrome includes (almost) a fully functional IDE. If you dig around, you can bind Chrome's Javascript debugger to files on disk. You can also interactively tweak the CSS that's rendered and then copy and paste it back to your sources.

But, I don't see why this guy thinks installing NodeJS is hard. I have a low tolerance for painful installs, but NodeJS and Visual Studio Code were quite easy for me to install and pick up.

Furthermore, you can code in a browser: Azure supports this, although it was somewhat buggy when I tried it.

It's actually not the best channel, but we're long-time HN readers ourselves and know that a lot of people around here are interested in PKM! Development is moving fairly rapidly, so whenever we release a new feature we think HNers might appreciate we make a new post.

- public sharing pages

- embedding

- pinning

- today view

- visibility (show / hide cards)

- and more!

Impetus for this post was the embedding though because we're really excited about the possibilities for that feature. Have a lot of great new features in the works as well, so you might see more posts in the future...

This is the track they are on, but given how shortlived they are, they never get the chance to do much evolution. They only have time to learn a few tricks. Simple things like turning stuff of or up/downregulating existing systems. It's a strange step to "cannot help but switch to the previous single-celled metabolism, very inefficient compared to ours".

Theory in article seems much more likely.

> But isn't using the code that people smarter/more proficient than you have developed a rather good way to go about things?

Many problems don't go away and don't become easier just beacuse you shove them under the carpet into a library. A lot of developers use libraries as an excuse to NOT THINK about the issues and ignore their existence not to save work. There's a fundamental difference between "I understand the problem and I know that library X will give me a good solution with low amount of work" and "This problem is hard, I'll shovel in another library and keep my fingers crossed that it does a good job at it."

It's saving work vs. saving thinking. First one is ok. Second one is not.

Persistent tracking of users with favicons [pdf]
I was told a story about the Dropbox sales team a while back that swore me off using them. They contacted the company I worked at, that didn't have a business contract with Dropbox, offering a great deal and a meeting was quickly arranged. The meeting (which I only heard about secondhand from a good friend) quickly turned into a strong-arm operation.

Dropbox had 'detected' that employees at our company were using Dropbox and it would be unfortunate if their stored files were no longer available and it would be in our best interest to sign up for a business account or we might legally be in breach of some terms of service. Some detective work later it was determined that people had been signed in to Dropbox from company machines, but there were no accounts opened with a company email and nothing business related was being synced. All Dropbox binaries and network connections have been blocked since.

I’m always a bit flummoxed by guidelines like this being taken as gospel. Sure I will start with the manufacture recommended placement if my room allows, but at the end of the day I have to hear the speakers so if it sounds good it is good rules for me. There really is no wrong if you like what you hear. Sure a rear port placed an inch from the wall will alter the response and likely cause chuffing as the air rushes in and out, but that falls under common sense to some degree. I guess one of the core tenets of “hifi” used to be flat frequency response from 20hz-20khz and no added coloration from the reproduction system. That’s fine but often times today’s music sounds crappy under those parameters. People like hyped bass and treble with a scooped midrange. That’s okay.
The parameters shift slightly when using studio monitoring to create a mix for music that needs to translate to other playback environments but even then a perfectly flat response is not necessary. If you know that your monitors are bass shy and increasing the bass will make it sound muddy on the majority of other systems then that is a data point you keep in mind. Learning the quirks of your monitoring setup is very important in this scenario. The point being that the guidelines are a starting point, not the rule.

It's the first story of it's kind I've read. It's a very different situation to being denied a flight, for example.

That said, the Italian health service has apparently made vaccination compulsory, and that doesn't sound like a bad idea at all.

Private firms though? Especially when the workers don't necessarily have to be in direct contact with customers? There should at least be a dialogue with the employees.

Heck, there'd be a better argument out there for compulsory vaccinations for judges, lawyers and politicians, over plumbers.

A year ago, I replaced Dropbox with Syncthing [1] for all my private use.

It syncs directly between your devices without need for a central server (except for device discovery).

I use it without an always-on instance (NAS, cloud server), so it only syncs when my Laptop and Phone are on at the same time. This is enough for me. It just works (TM).

I agree with much of your post but let’s be clear, leading with this can be misleading.

Fundamentally, homelessness centers around being unable, for whatever reason, to work.

Not around specific wages and rents, which I think makes this part a red herring.

We can’t solve homelessness by attacking several ‘root causes’ at once. The key here is to be absolutely candid about what the root cause actually is right now.

Edit:
Your comment is using homelessness to critique capitalism, and is not actually about homelessness at all.
