Nonsense. All workers from any sector should be able to unionize. Management is already organized.
Yeah, I would suspect that a code that has "algorithms" is already pretty well optimized before it hits the compiler; the place where gains would be seen would be in "enterprise" or business code - or something like OpenOffice.

Harder to benchmark.
Ask HN: Are there any other youtubers like u/deepf***ingvalue?
After deepf**ingvalue became a celebrity now, I started watching his Youtube channel. At first I expected one of these typical nonsense hijinks youtubers who are getting attention by being loud and funny. But damn! He is really passionate about investing and thinks things through.

Even though it's all old stuff now, I listened through a bunch of his hour long videos and love the content.

Are there any others out there I have been missing?
I can go and buy however many Yelp reviews I need right now, good or bad for as little as $5/review. Dig deeper and you realize Yelp uses the same tactics as the mafia in Italy to extort store owners and use heavy handed tactics.

Reviews are BS anyway, I don't know you therefore why on earth would I listen to your opinion on something?
Thank you for all your efforts. The way you appear to have handled google's unjustifiable action is really impressive. Clearly that's one of the main reasons to be optimistic that matrix has a bright future - if I was in charge it certainly wouldn't. Due to incidents like this I simply ditched google completely. (OK, to be honest I sometimes watch videos on yt but without having an account.)

I love boba and have since my Asian friends in high school introduced it to me years ago.

Granted, nowadays when I order "boba" (and say I'm ordering boba) I'm just referring to the tea by itself without the pearls/bubbles/boba. I mostly do this to cut down on sugar, since boba itself just has way too much. Though occasionally when I really am in the mood and I know the shop I'm at makes great boba, I do order it with the drink. It seems weird at first to call plain flavored tea boba if it doesn't contain them, but then a lot of my friends will also colloquially call the same thing "milk tea" even when they purposely get a milk-less tea at a shop ;).

I think these days I'm more of a "traditionalist" if there is such a thing, because my favorite shop is one mentioned in the article: Ten Ren. I believe there are two Bay Area locations and I tend to frequent the Cupertino one, though the Milpitas one is far more traditional since it's lined with canisters of teas of all kinds and the people who ring you up/make your drink are the older generation (unlike most modern boba shops that tend to have high school/college age employees). But anyway, in short Ten Ren, IMO, has some of the best-tasting and simple flavored teas compared to some of the weirdly, overly-complex ones at more hype shops.

Lived in India in the 1980s - going there on a spiritual journey (yes, I know) and stayed for a few years.

When I left the country, two events had occurred for which I don’t think I’ll be able to see that country in a good light ever again.

The first was the anti-Sikh riots after Indira Gandhi’s murder. Politicians were compliant, including the newly elected PM Rajiv Gandhi who at the time famously said “When a tree falls, it’s normal for the earth to shake”. Of course, I haven’t even touched on the events leading up to this, most notably the destruction of the Golden Temple. I spoke to people who saw the riots first-hand, and it tainted my view of that country forever.

The second was the Indian intervention in neighboring Sri Lanka. The oppressed Tamil minority were waging a war against the government. India sent in its forces, in the name of brokering peace and then killed thousands of innocent civilians. The Indian man’s propensity for rape was on full display, as the Indian “Peacekeeping” Force (IPKF) weaponized rape against the same populace they came to protect. For what it’s worth, India was humiliated a la Vietnam, and lost thousands of soldiers.

The rape issue is also very apparent in modern day Indian society, but I’d rather not open that can of worms in this thread.

In either case, after witnessing these happenings from relatively close, I gave up on all hope for that country. Too many rotten apples.
Interesting, but what does it mean? The example of the steak makes no sense (it's a steak, not "fitness") and what does it mean to be "tuned to fitness" instead of reality? If perception of reality goes extinct, how do you reach the steak?

The whole section makes no sense to me.

Ask yourself some critical questions.

- is the scope well defined?

- do I understand the value add and agree with it?

- do I feel as if all stakeholders are aligned and adequately involved?

- do I think the team can pull it off ?

- do I think the mood and style fits myself?

- do I think the timelines and budgets are realisitc?

- do I agree with the level of transparency from management?

Etc etc

Ask yourself these questions - and more - and you will discover the answer for yourself.

In the end listen to your guts.

Ah, I mean the purest form of capitalism is one without any government or monetary system controlling the currency or tax on transactions. I think this is a reasonable statement.

Capitalism, much like democracy it's the least-worst system out there.

I believe most of the problems we're facing with it are challenges of scale. Especially in the US, it's just too big. Maybe breaking everything up back to the state level would be a good idea?

What is your point? We live in a society and we're stuck with each other. We need some rules to organize this. It can't work on a "if I feel like it"-basis.

> Giving people shelter costs other people time and work. How will you pay for that?

We've been doing this kind of thing since modern humans evolved (actually, probably longer). It's just the society got larger and got organized in to nations.
> What prevents a monopolized market?

I'm not sure if the Indian government does this, but in some countries the government breaks up monopolies and tries to prevent them from forming in the first place.

I think the new laws allow anyone to approach a farmer with a better deal, and if the farmer chooses, they can even try to sell directly to the end customers.
I replied to your other comment at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25975825 about that exact question!

One weird thing we've discovered working on VA.gov for the last five years is that we on the contractor side actually have retained a lot more institutional knowledge than the VA has. It's a problem! We think that knowledge should be on the government side, but the structure isn't there yet: USDS and 18F have rotational term limits that keep people moving through, and at the VA (not sure about other agencies) they're just in the last couple years building out an organization to do that long-term product ownership and institutional knowledge retention, even if implementation teams come through. It's moving in the right direction but it's slow, large-organization change, with a lot of extra slowness that's unique to government.
The bubble tea in Bangkok is especially delicious, because it’s usually the bubble version of Thai tea (at least that’s what was most common when I lived there). Which is an especially delicious spiced black tea. The copious amounts of sugar it’s usually served with (or condensed milk) doesn’t hurt the flavor either.

A government could totally ban crypto.

If I wanted to do so as a leader I would:

* Log which citizens visited any crypto related domains (exchanges, crypto wallet app servers etc.)

* Make a law banning the holding or exchange of crypto. Give everyone 1 week to comply.

* Make a government address to send coins to for disposal, and publish a form to fill in to say you have disposed of your holdings.

* Contact everyone in your log telling they need to fill in the form (even to declare they no longer have any holdings).

* After the deadline, arrest anyone who has not filled in the form or who declares zero holdings and subsequently visits exchanges etc.

* Sure, this method will miss some who carefully use tor. But that's a tiny minority.
*
The transition wasn't rough to me at all. When I finally decided to give it a try it was like seeing the seas part before me. I can legitimately not go back to non tree based desktop browsing.

This doesn’t quite seem like that as the implementation of the instructions isn’t yet specified. Even if it is integrated, it can use dedicated VRAM and not have to use the CPU’s ALU.
Copyright itself is a mistake. It made sense in an era where you needed to own a printing press in order to copy works at scale. In the 21st century, anyone can easily copy anything. Stopping it requires tyrannical laws and enforcement mechanisms.

Either copyright goes away or free computing as we know and love will be destroyed.

To clarify, the blame does not lie entirely with the photojournalist. They may choose to get a shot using a telephoto lens to capture, say, which face expressions dominate the crowd (which may be unfeasible with a wide lens).

Now, if this is the only picture the photographer has taken, then both the editor (who had not had a lot of options, though still could go without a photo entirely) and the photographer are guilty of contributing unprofessional journalism.

On the other hand, if the editor chose to use only the tele shot while having other angles available, then the editor is culpable (the photographer, only in so much as they do not raise a concern and choose to continue to work with that editor).

I use virtual environments to keep my system installation clean, and PostgreSQL / Nginx are so stable that the version I happen to have on my dev machine usually works with all my projects dating back to 2014 (but kept up-to-date).

One of the most important thing docker provides is an abstraction between the application and the OS. If you don't need the abstraction, then it's only going to look like cost.

On the other hand, being able to write an some code in python 3.9 and deploy it anywhere across a heterogeneous production environment without fighting with the OS about how many versions of python it has installed is a useful thing.
This has not been my experience. I run three servers in separate VMs on a Lenovo T420 laptop. These laptops run for about $200USD on Ebay though you'll need to upgrade the ram and the HDD to an SSD, so the cost is about $300USD.

But California does not have a 50gw generating capacity. It imports electricity during the summer months to make up the load factor difference.

Whats the prob? Its money changing hands. It flows from the Corp down to developers, managers, etc.

also it is good that corps and governments try to innovate and spend money on it.

Can it be more efficient?

Always(!)

Can it be more focused?

Sure.

But a big innovation takes a lot of factors to be well balanced and that alone is often not guaranteed nor possible given the circumstances. You just might not find the kind of devs it really needs (and not even knowing about it). So you hire the best thats available but it won't work...

Bad luck. At least you tried.

I see it that way. Whether vcs pump millions into 100 startups so that one succeeds or corps pump millions into 100 projects... Who cares? The money is not burned. It hopefully ends in my pocket
That's great for libraries but isn't it a pretty huge cost for an app you only really are going to be running on one version at a time?

This entire notion of respecting DRM to such an extent is absurd. If you buy a kindle book from Amazon, regardless of legal details, it's fairly "yours" and just as is the case with a physical book, you should have the right and inclination to strip off its DRM and then use it across devices as you please, even send a copy or two to friends. The right because you bought it, just like you'd have once bought a paper book, and the inclination because as we've seen with many cases of sealed digital content "ownership" platforms in the past, buyers have a funny way of suddenly losing everything they supposedly own. Stripping DRM removes both problems completely and, yes, it's usually very easy to do using perfectly legal software like Calibre, for example.
I think it would be better if you made your point rather than asked it rhetorically. To me your argument reads like 'internet chat is currently proprietary so it always will be' but maybe I'm missing a step you'll need to fill in.
> s there a benefit of running Postgres and Django in different containers

You can use the official optimised containers ( especially for complex things like Postgres that's great)

> By putting them in the same container, things could be a good bit simpler. And I don't see any downside here

The downsides are that you get fat containers that are impossible to scale independently ( one day you might want two Django containers, or to set up a replica PgSQL for load balancing, HA, etc.)
In the past it really was legal for politicians to insider trade but that was ostensibly rolled back by the STOCK act: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/obama-signs-stock-act-to-ban-co...

The version in the official OS-provided repository is often very old, even obsolete. But yeah, just use the Docker provided repository instead, that gets you updates afterwards.
The US is known for forcing other countries to adopt laws similar to its own via trade agreements. If they don't do what the US wants, its trade office will put them in a naughty list which results in political and economic pressure being applied.
It won't happen, because there's no political incentive to do so.

SoCs are the future, much lower latency. Perhaps the SoC can be upgradable like the Raspberry Pi CM.
Because nobody except for HN commenters cares what lamguage it's written in. It's about as easy to use and flexible as it gets so development is fast and people can contribute easily and it's entirely fast enough if you run it on reasonable hardware (for proof see other comments around here).

The fact that it doesn't run on your toaster is probably a feature, not a bug. To get it running on a Pi, even if written in a compiled language, things would have to be stripped down, making the overall software worse - a for what reason?

Running a Matrix server on a Pi in your closet is about the worst thing you can do. It's slow, unstable, has zero redundancy, needs constant maintenance, is physically in your home, on a residential connection.... If the point were for users to run this themselves, something like a local NAS (Synology has 1-click apps, I believe) would be the lowest-end reasonable option, but the whole idea of running your own Matrix server at home is insane! At the very least, it should have basic redundancy for uplink, data and power, which are already near-impossible to achieve at home.

And why should servers hosted by individuals? That would be horribly wasteful and inefficient, as well as raising the bar for users. I'll guarantee you that anyone who has enough skill and experience running and maintaining servers will have more than just a Pi available to them and anyone who doesn't have that experience should really not be running such an important service themselves.
It's all fun until one of your requirements needs a billion build dependencies to be available on a machine. How do you solve that with pyenv?

Docker does it for you.
> Poverty amplifies the problem of racism. But racism is what caused that poverty in the first place.

I partly agree, but I’d argue that it’s less complicated. I would rephrase thusly: Poverty IS the problem. And historical racism is the cause of a lot of that poverty.

> even if you removed racism completely, African-Americans would still be stuck with being poor, simply for historical reasons.

I agree in principle. The question is how you solve for systemic poverty. I think the first, most obvious step is to enact a very steep inheritance tax. That would be the most effective way to dampen generational capital inequality.

The second thing you could do is a generous UBI because that would dramatically benefit the systemically poor. The most effective way to lower income inequality is to raise the floor.
> worked fine at 200% scale

My X11 setup also works perfectly fine back then, at 200%. Maybe even earlier, 2016 or so.

The caveat is, of course, 200%. Try 150% and it is really a pain in the ass.
I mean...yes, it could happen like it is outlined in the article. But the easy (and imho proper way to do it completely avoids it: Don't rely on the User-Agent (like: at all) and do proper feature detection client side where you probably need it anyway. This way you also don't have the problem of having to maintain the list of browsers to features.
Not really. Lots of people worldwide were very concerned about the lies the past 4 years in US. Of course people write about their concerns. Lots of people care for Indians, the Chinese and Russians too!
You could generate a set of random vectors that span the entire input space, exercise the system with those vectors, and publish some sort of "accuracy" (e.g. generate random vectors through i.i.d. uniform R.V.s over the input space, evaluate f(input), and use the successes in a hierarchical binomial distribution). Remember that most of the time we try to verify programs by building a model to model _edge cases_; after all the "happy path" of the program is simple to test. Edge cases are, by their nature, rare occurrences. As a trivial example, think of a boolean function f(x, y) = x & y. f evaluates to 0 for every value of (x, y) except (1, 1). If we were to create a model of this function, f_model = 0, f_model would appear to evaluate similarly to f 75% of the time. With a sufficiently large input state space, it would be quite feasible to hide essential edge cases in very small tail probabilities (e.g. < 99.5%).
> Once the mandis are gone

Where are the mandis going? If they are non-competitive, they are out. But if they lose their non-sense and compete, they can be around. Also, the people working at the Mandis (Mandi employees), they are also free to start their own company that compete with the Mandis.

> what prevents a monopolized market from then strong-arming farmers into bad deals?
This law, which prevents monolopy. The current monopoly is the Mandi. How will be farmers be strong-armed to a bad deal if they have options to choose?

> This is factually incorrect.

My mistake, "But can ONLY sell the produce to the local Mandi at some states". Punjab is an example of were Mandis have complete power. While in other states like TN, Bihar, MP, UP and more have already changed the rule.

> Only about 30% of produce is sold in mandis.

that is a bit misleading as Mandis dont have prominence is all states. But in Punjab where they are there, no one is allowed.
