Work for Google. Work on the same feature for a year. Deadlines are fungible and no one cares if you aren't killing it
Thanks for building this! Love this version I think this would work great for making and fixing bugs. I think automated tests and chores as a category would actually be great to add to this.

For our open source project (https://github.com/papercups-io/papercups). We participated in hacktoberfest recently and one problem we ran into is people submitting low quality PRs. Which ends up taking up way more time to review than to merge.

I would love to be able to filter by users who have merged multiple issues or some sort of quality bar for our bounties. Obviously since you are just starting out your users won't have too many issues merged. You might be able to work around this by finding the number of Github issues an author have merged previously to any projects that is greater than x number of stars. This way you might be able to bootstrap some credibility of the authors. Then a open source maintainer can gate on only allowing some reputable contributors.

One inspiration I would recommend is taking a look at how 99designs has different tiers of designers you can have a bounty for your design. If you could build 99design for open project that would be amazing. Best of Luck!
Can you imagine the infomercial mileage they'd get out of that?
Just wanted to say thanks again for the thorough response!
The reason it takes so long to become a physician is because they have to tailor treatments to specific patients. Guidelines are there to help them make decisions.
Motor controllers are necessary with AC motors to supply the 3-phase AC that the motors need in sync with the motor's rotation. (DC motor controllers are simpler, but I don't think DC motors are used in any modern commercially-produced EV.) This generally requires some amount of software.

The motor generally has current and voltage and RPM and temperature limits, and the motor controller keeps everything within those limits. But the motor controller isn't there just for that reason, it's there because the motor couldn't function without it.

DC motors are different; those you could just literally replace your gas pedal with an on/off button and wire it straight from the battery to the motor. Not that that's a good idea.
Hey, author here - thank you so much for this pointed criticism. I honestly realized I had not researched or taken as open of a viewpoint as I had previously thought. I appreciate you taking the time to read what I wrote and write this clear feedback as it has helped me tremendously in developing a more objective perspective and neutral tone as a writer.

Just wanted to let you know that your keystrokes did make an impact on the writer, who sincerely appreciates your honest thoughts.
Intriguingly, this is one of the things Apple has recently made customizable…
There isn’t a shortage of means to socialize and communicate digitally. Facebook rises and falls on its own merits and if your speech depends on Facebook, that’s a personal problem, and reflects your own personal choices.

20 years ago Facebook didn’t exist. Now we have Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Tumblr, WordPress (both the service and the software), YouTube, SoundCloud, the Fediverse, Twitch, Slack, Discord, iMessage groups, whatever the 3 Google messengers of the day are, XMPP clients and servers, IRC (which is admittedly more than 20 years old), countless dating sites, Reddit, and countless other “social networks”. When the bars re-open, we’ll have those too, and that is an ancient institution.

And for what it’s worth, there’s also the comments section of NRO and The Dispatch. Oh, and the forum we’re talking on.
President Biden to use Defense Production Act for masks, vaccines
how are gifts corruption? It's a business and if you need to spend tons of money to close a high value deal, then that is what is required.
> The real theft ends up being people stealing the mirrors since those go for some $$ on ebay and the like.

I had the battery stolen out of my car. Luckily there was a used battery shop just down the street that had just what I needed in stock.
Climbers and riggers should all be familiar with fatigue limits.

It can be as high as 50% max tensile strength for steel, but I use 30% as my working figure when rigging, and I regularly re-inspect and age-retire gear (at least use annualized color coded markings).

When I’ve rigged circus in the past I’ve taken to replacing aluminum gear I find with steel, especially if it’s going to be installed for a while.

That said, I climb on aluminum. I just age out my equipment. I’d hate for my last thought to be “huh... I guess aluminum really does degrade with repeated stress.”
At that level you're talking about framework api's (in this case NextStep and derivatives), not the language itself. Drop me into some Haskell or Java or OCaml or Python or Ruby framework, I'm going to have to reach for a reference as well.

It's not uncommon to conflate Objective-C conversationally with its most common use case, but Objective-C is not NextStep and other Apple-ecosystem friends.
Full Disclosure: I have no financial interest in flex-seal.

My general experience with glues is I'll use bolts. I can't get superglue to stick anything together other than my fingers. My rear view mirror fell off again, the third time I glued it on with superglue.
This type of farm produces expensive feed in the form of sprouted wheat grass- the article mentions harvesting after only a week. I have to imagine it would be far more expensive for the room and maturing to get proper bales...
Let me try again: Like you loved Altium leaving? I didnt mention Toyota because it might seem like a win in some peoples eyes (invaders retreating). Yay for cheaper cars you cant afford because your manufacturing job was moved to Thailand due to half assed half-free trade deals. Sooner or later you will either work in a mine, or in service industry feeding/taking care for the miners.

That last point is just wrong. Sometimes the return value is `nothing`, but that's still very much a return value.
I grew up eating deer and partridge (ruffed grouse) and in my opinion, they aren't delicious. They don't taste good because the have very little fat. (Moose do taste good for some reason.) To make deer hamburgers you have to add beef fat.

If you have eaten wild game that tasted good I suspect it was augmented in some way. We used have some sort of gravy or marinade on deer meat and pin some bacon on partridge.

I had the folding one during that time. 2K RAM, pretty nice BASIC, limited display, no bitmap graphics, which was a bummer. (I would have actually used those, from time to time)

Anyway, it ran forever on a button cell and it was loaded with a pile of little short program routines I could run to perform manufacturing related computations. Still have it somewhere and it still worked a couple years ago.

Totally worth the money. That little computer saved me tons of time and error.

Wanted a Model 100. Got that thing because it was cheap.

I have a Model 100 now. Yeah, it would have been killer back then!
This is reminiscing of the reputation on some of the bug bounty platforms. Like all good things it’s not straight forward though, just because a PR is rejected or even if the project thinks it’s low quality is not 100% directly related to it actually being low quality.

Never the less something like this is likely needed. With reference to the digital ocean free shirt pull request saga :)
It's not too expensive for governments to do it, and it doesn't have to be private enterprise. Neither of those things are true. Nor is it even clear that it would be cheaper to contract with some private provider to boost the ISS than for the space agencies to figure it out themselves with the launch vehicles they have. How do you think NASA, ESA, etc build rockets anyway? They contract with Lockheed, Boeing, Airbus, Northrop, and others to build them. Having the whole operation be under the auspices of SpaceX doesn't do much other than make other governments more reluctant to help fund it.
Do you have a good tutorial for all these processes? This is something I thought would be awesome for a while, but there are a lot of moving parts. I also thought all the hardware was not yet support to do all of this.
I find this article naively optimistic (which may be unsurprising given how much Andreessen Horowitz is invested in the crypto space).

I don't see how anybody can delude themselves to think that blockchain is about giving control back to the users, or that it is somehow democratic.
Just look at the distribution of the supply for any token. You'll have the top 1% of wallets controlling > 80% of the supply. Dev keeping half the supply to themselves. Even airdrops to users like Uniswap did don't prevent someone from buying up most of the supply. Crypto and governance tokens give you plutocracy, not democracy.

And that's not even mentioning the issue around access to the code (see Blockstream)
I view it as a failure of the current political climate that we need to turn to Facebook to fund an oversight board. A few months ago, Congress had a chance to cross examine the world's most influential CEOs about Section 230 to help them come up with meaningful legislation. Instead, they squandered the opportunity by complaining about decisions or content they found objectionable.
Thank you for this feedback. I didn't realize I was taking the same tone as all the partisan journalism I read on a daily basis until I actually tried my hand at writing something myself. Your succinct criticism is greatly appreciated and has helped me tremendously in improving my writing ability.
That's only partially true. You'd really something like boost to cover a lot of things that glib provides for C. glib covers many, many things that are outside of the scope of both the C++ and C standard libraries.
Earlier today was a write up on Chris Crawford's Dragon Speech[1], a speech which is one of the highest paeans to interactivity (& computing's potency at interactivity) that the world has been blessed to receive. If Chris doesn't convince you, sell you, well, something is wrong with you, probably, or i'd like to hear how you managed to roll your crit success against his rhetoric.

So, interactivity leaps out very strongly here too, as a central technique of this produced synthesized propogganda, the key element that kept folks forever on the hook. Two very strong interactivity stories, from very different ish at-first-glance places in one day.

I think you’re missing the other piece of the parent’s reply — the fact that Teslas are always tracked, making them easy to find, makes it easier for insurance companies (and cops) to find thieves, and makes theft much less appealing.
Who's running the website is not the interesting part of this, note how US government independent agencies still use government IT.
The difference in real-world use isn't nearly so pronounced in my experience. MicroPython is written in C, so whenever you're using modules implemented natively then you're only paying for a small boundary crossing.

For example, all of the machine API is typically very fast. I'd be surprised if you'd notice a significant improvement sending SPI buffers directly from C. But it's way more convenient from MicroPython - especially considering you can do it live at a REPL.

If you're spending a lot of time processing in MicroPython then yes, you'll notice a perf hit. But, if that's the case, carve out the perf-sensitive code and create a C module in MicroPython; it's straightforward.

It's akin to the way that CPython is considered slow but by using libraries like numpy or pandas the real-world performance is decent.
Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World
Sure, putting on my layman hat: "Add the observer 'self' to some centralized place get a notification of some kind for when the app becomes active. Something to do with a 'shared application' and a 'selector', maybe they are some additional context?" Of course, the latter two are things you'd know if you have used Objective-C even a little bit, with the former being a fairly standard nomenclature for a global and the latter being a crucial part of the language.
Basically half of the main cast (7 out of 14 or 15 depending on how you count) have died below life expectancy for their birth year. The causes of their deaths are all different or at least had very different comorbidities. That is really weird.
Ah, gotcha. Who actually holds that idea though? I don't think expressing concern that the hype over hydroxychloroquine is misguided and wasting resources equates to an assumption that all drug research is futile on their part.

Indeed, it seems like many drugs have received research attention (I did one quick search that turned up over 3000 trials registered this year for various treatments, though many might have been duplicates or meta analysis or not approved). I have limited time and interest in researching Ivermectin specifically, but, as I see oft quoted here, the plural of anecdote is not data. My understanding is that Remdesivir is currently the best treatment option, is approved by the FDA for use, and was a repurposed drug developed against other viruses.

Thanks for the link to BMJ. If that turns out to be true, it would be disappointing to me (relative to 90%). But also still seems to show a reduction in severity, which is good for all of us. Thus also an increased importance that everyone who can gets vaccinated, for their own health (if we learn that you can't depend on herd immunity to protect you) and continued exploration of improved treatments.
Despite all the talk, ultimately, the first amendment means congress has relatively little power over the content on social media websites.
1. We need a clear separation between system programs and application programs, so that a user can install the latest version of Python without it ever colliding with the outdated version of Python that the OS uses internally. The user shouldn't even need to be aware of the existence of the other Python.

2. The default way to install third-party application software shouldn't depend on repositories or servers. It should be based on installing files, just like on Windows. The OS should define a stable format for the OS to install, update and uninstall these files. Additionally, a permission system like Android's could be a good idea.

3. We need a desktop environment that's visually appealing and has a good UX.

4. We need centralized, thorough and official user documentation about the OS, so that the user doesn't need to browse random forums and wikis in order to learn how to use some piece of the OS. Note that this documentation is about the OS, not about third party software. And this documentation should be distinct from the developer's documentation.

5. Consistency. The user shouldn't need to learn 10 different config file formats or inconsistent command flags across the system in order to configure it.
Their demographics are increasingly challenging (large population is aging as birth rates collapse).

Not an obvious call in any way though. Maybe the US will do something sensible like open our borders.
It's also true that young gymnasts retire in their mid-to-late twenties. They get injured a lot. I'm not sure what they get for their efforts, besides medals and prestige.

There's definitely value in getting out of your comfort zone, but that doesn't have to be hard. IMO it's only worth pushing yourself hard if you really believe in something. Don't do it just because others are pressuring you to do so. Rest when you need it.
...or not and realise that professional development is not only possible in MicroPython but can significantly reduce development time - and costs - to your client.

Kara Swisher was reminiscing about a similar game on the early web called Lesbian or German Woman which always seemed to trip her up.
Objective-C has no exceptions.
> SpaceX is proving they can launch cheaper, quicker, and just as safely - isn't that a thing worth encouraging?

No because there isn't a launch demand large enough to justify what SpaceX is trying to perfect, and all of Musk's projects are welfare queens.

HNers confuse the entertainment value of watching rockets get reused with actual space delivery - which is exactly backwards.

If you're confused by the above, what is SpaceX going to do with their launch capacity after Starlink?
Good point. I guess it would be cool if you could choose the sharding method per-table. I haven't put too much thought into this, but off the top of my head I can imagine a number of different methods suitable for different situations.

It seems that gas stations would not work during a power outage. Santa Ana winds cause lots of edge case problems.
That is partly true, I am reorganizing my life, and I think the levels of stress are related with your dependencies. If you can't live a month without paycheck > can't get fired > stress. If you can't switch industries caus you can't take the pay cut > stress. When you don't have a lot of liabilities, and you feel like you can walk away any time, that helps with feeling stressed.
I've never seen an app that didn't have that feature. Chrome included. I don't have powerpoint around to test at the moment. I've been using this feature since the 90s, and I'd miss it sorely if it were to be disappeared.
I do think you'll find the latter two in a decent number of successful writers.
The "or" in that statement read as they did none of those things. Not that they failed one of them but not the others.
Yep that's a good idea. I do some internal tagging when something is a brand logo, so I could use that data to put a little notice in the Preview modal that it's likely trademarked :)
Does it matter if Rupert doesn't get money from Google? His news assets still have print versions, his channels still have media versions, and if Google exits, they'll just concede the entire Aus market to Bing/DDG. Sure the people won't like it, but the more Google actually goes through with its threat, the more evidence it will provide for an antitrust case back home.
Almost always Facebook does not care about the outcome of content moderation decisions. It does not meaningly affect ad revenue, but it's a huge driver of bad press. They want to externalise it as much as possible.

The internet needs more stuff like this. I got 7/10 but I couldn't resist calling Guido a killer after the way he murdered Perl slowly for like a decade.
"comprised of staff and board members independent of the company"

Independent in what sense?

Do we know for sure that they and their families don't own any Facebook stock and are not associated with Facebook employees/owners?

Just as important, how do they get on to be on Facebook's "Supreme Court"?

I presume they're not elected by Facebook users and don't actually represent them in any tangible sense, so whose interests do they represent?

>If you demand that he allows you to post on his site, could I make demands to post on your site?

Of course you could. Whether you would have a good case is another question.

If you're implying an equivalence between the two situations I think what you're missing is that Facebook and the SWP's websites are very different kinds of website. Facebook is a social media website[1] that hosts various kinds of communities, whereas the SWP's website is a website specific to the SWP.

You can adapt and move on. There's no need for everyone else to go with that, though.
I just got out of a rut that had me a year down, wellbutrin helped a bit but couldn't go on longer than a few months because of the resulting insomnia, and while it didn't really lift the brain fog, it worked very well with the panic attacks I was having from ADHD meds or coffee (after years of using them, lately with diminishing returns)

When I went back to the basics done right, and stopped doing experiments on myself like fasting or energy drinks at certain times, everything slowly went back into place, it only took about 3 weeks and compounding effects after a few months. Basically, consistency was key:

Start the day with aminoacids + b-complex, water soluble vitamins on empty stomach work better.

Then a protein breakfast, like 4 eggs and some greens. Eggs are a good source of choline. Only now I'd pop a vyvanse, less aggressive/spiky effect but also less anxiety and lasts longer on a neutral stomach.

Replace coffee with matcha. Has the caffeine + theanine for relaxation, and slower release. Happier gut as well.

Extended lunch break: small meal but time for a walk with my gf, light exercise, call a friend or errands, then slowly transition back to work and finish the day.

For dinner get your Omegas and Vitamin E (lowers inflammation), fat soluble vitamins do better on a full stomach.

Before bed maybe some Melatonin and Magnesium.

About supplements for brain fog, maybe try some extra B1 (Thiamine, there's also Sulbuthiamine), Ginseng.

Get tested for anemia, even if the basic blood panel looks OK, just get a video doctor to hand you out an exam order for the usual suspects like ferritin, serum iron, plasma electrolytes, b6/b12, d, c, folate. If it's low but not anemia-level low, you could supplement, it seems pretty common with iron. Low Vitamin D won't really change with those 800 IU pills, get those salts that have 50.000 IU once per week then retest after a month.
We're talking the 12v battery right? Would be pretty impressive if they lifted the car up and got the high voltage pack out.
Amsterdam Is Embracing a Radical New Economic Theory
Somehow, the big players have managed to convince us to suck up the damage.

Correctly moderating Facebook, blocking recalled/bogus/questionable goods on Amazon, or keeping Google's search index pruned of scams and misinformation, are fundamentally problems that requires armies of trained humans, well-thought-out and transparent process, and potentially independent or state oversight to keep it all on the rails.

It's much cheaper for them to buy racks of servers, and occasionally shrug their shoulders and blame algorithms. I'm amazed that legislatures throughout the world have been willing to accept that behaviour for so long. It's not like the problems can be explained away with "it's an insignificant business with no political or commercial influence", or "it's a 6-month-old startup firm that made beginner mistakes because they couldn't afford to do things properly".

Break them all up. Even in a world without Google and Facebook, enterprising nerds will be encoding H.265 via smoke signals to ensure we get our cat videos.
For all of the talk about gerrymandering, it’s worth noting that it had almost no net effect this year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_United_States_House_of_Re...

Democrats won 50.8% of the House popular vote, and 51% of seats.

Or in 2018: Democrats won 54% of seats and 53.4% of the vote.

It had a modest effect in 2016: Democrats won 45% of seats but 48% of the vote.
