So, does this conflict with the "Bad businesses with bad models are more likely to want help changing" narrative? There's a world in which this squares with McKinsey coming in to help those businesses with the change being pushed on them.
The issue with Parler is that they weren't purely banning on illegal vs legal speech, they were banning left-wing "trolling" which isn't illegal (even if it was actually trolling).

No it’s only when it doesn’t involve calling for killing other people.

This argument of yours doesn’t apply to calls for murder.

Man i love the ease of this lib. I've been running between docker, poetry, venvs, and pipenv and they all just SUCK.

Is there a best workflow for using this inside a container?
That it solves the right problem for customers in the right way, so that someone is willing to pay for it, enough to fund the needed resources to keep the product growing and stable.

Outside of that generic rule... every product is different because every problem is different, and every target market is different.
A number of the first trans-atlantic cables landed in the tiny village of Heart's Content, Newfoundland. I drove through there on a road trip about a decade ago & stopped at the excellent museum in the old cable station, and was excited to make my way across the highway to the beach to see this exact thing. It turns out that the old cables are just.... left to rust on the beach. It's really amazing that these cables, originally a technological wonder & a bridge between entire continents, are just left to the elements once their useful life is over.

> Users message me to appreciate some small look & feel improvements, they leave feedback and I fix things for them, I get excited about a new feature and it brings value to their work.

This is great. But if you thrive on this kind of positive feedback, I'm curious to know, if you ever get the occasional bit of angry/negative feedback (e.g. from a user who is really pissed off about a feature change that broke their unique workflow), does it demotivate you? If not, how do you avoid it getting you down? Or is it just so rare that it's not a problem?
Assuming this is your personal website, a form with a captcha should suffice. Ensure the form limits the input to printable text and limit how often the form may be used by IP and globally. Captcha doesn't need to be a third party. It can be a simple math problem or a simple logic question or even "What is in the picture below?" and have a picture of a horse. Why a form? So people don't get your real email address and you have the option to only view the messages on your website at your leisure. Legit users will leak their contacts when they get malware on their system.

The article included the revelation that McKinsey had prepared a nine-page report measuring the public perception of certain Saudi economic policies, and cited three individuals who were driving much of the largely negative coverage on Twitter: a Saudi Arabia-based writer named Khalid al-Alkami, a dissident living in Canada named Omar Abdulaziz, and an anonymous writer. After the report was created, Al-Alkami was arrested, and Abdulaziz’s brothers living in Saudi Arabia were put in prison. The anonymous Twitter channel was shut down.[4]

I am unconvinced that any mandatory training is useful (ignoring the fact that the act of implementing the training itself is useful to the people who implement the training.)
Can anyone counter my impression that we are witnessing in the Western world the exact same course of events that happened in Japan in the 1990s? (low growth, high debt, ageing population, low interest rates, rising of average P/E ratios).

Am I wrong to expect that corporate valuations in Europe and the U.S. will not appreciate in the coming decades as they have in past decades?

Edit: Yes, the U.S. and Europe are indeed in different economic positions, the U.S. can still avoid the spiral if it continues to attract skilled immigration and remains a low bureaucracy, easy-to do business environment.
Hey, thanks :) The project's web application is currently not separated enough into backend/frontend to forge a CLI tool from that backend. There is an export function, but it's meant as a data export for all the pipes (to not hold data hostage), not per canvas, and to my knowledge no one so far has tried to work with the JSON representation the site exports.

However, you can fork pipes in the site UI and then edit them like that. And if a team would share an account to manage a set of Pipes together there is nothing that would prevent that.
The biggest problem is that the things people want to buy are in short supply. So the extra money doesn't actually help anything, you just get asset price inflation.

I want to buy a house. If everyone has access to cheap mortgages, then everybody can buy a house! But there is a hard limit on how fast we can build housing. Even renovating a home has the same problem. Contractors in my area are raising their hourly rate now because everybody wants their home renovated! But there aren't enough contractors for everyone, so the price just goes up.

Look at the video card market. There's a hard limit on the amount of video cards that the industry can produce. That doesn't change if suddenly everyone can afford the $2,500 price tags. The price just goes up by exactly the amount of money people get loaned!

And there's a hard limit on the amount of entertainment I can consume in a day. A person has about 16-20 hours a day MAX to consume media. We literally can't listen to any more music, there's not enough time in the day. I can't spend any more money on media because I am physically unable to consume more.

I don't see how this would stimulate anything? The reason I'm not buying anything isn't because I can't afford it, it's because it's not available at all! (Probably why the stock market is experiencing volatility right now - it's the only thing providing utility right now)
I loved del.icio.us. It was probably the first really popular non “.com” site and it was such a great concept. I even tried to build a personal clone later called “vizilinkz”. Ah good times...
My first attempt, and I get "AttributeError: module 'toml.decoder' has no attribute 'TomlPreserveCommentDecoder'"

So careful, far from stable.

I reported it (https://github.com/frostming/pdm/issues/247) because the project is great and I want it to succeed, but I won't put it in prod any time soon. I prefer my package manager to be stable than fancy.

It's also why I don't use poetry and so on in training. There is always some bug that students will encounter later because there are so many config combinations they can encounter, but recent tools have not been as battle tested as we think: the enterprise world is a wild beast.

It really is a distributed Ponzi. Kind of like the company MMM in Russia in the 90s, everybody knew it was a scam but people hoped they would get out before it collapsed and take profits from the later suckers.

The innovation of crypto in this space is that it makes the Ponzi scheme genuinely fair. Unlike MMM, there is no founder at the top who can run off with all the funds at once.

The scheme lasts until the last fool is found, the losses are distributed amongst the late arrivals (or early adopters with diamond hands) and the gains are distributed amongst the early adopters who sold high. There is nobody to go after as a criminal. Best of all, the "company" survives despite losing its value, and the cycle can repeat again in a few years. If you didn't get out this time, you can hope for another round of the game later on in which you can unload your position.
Even if this is true, I think the simple reason might be that one of the five eyes country is US, which is probably the global hub for data and services used throughout the world. Also, Britain being near entrance of Europe from Atlantic, and Australia being near Asia would make economical sense for the cables to take that path.

Honestly, thats just nonsense ...

Anyone who wants to try out gobolinux for real would at least do some basic reading first. Its that distinct a distro that you kind of have to, and no problems with that. Not everything innovative can be expected to be digested without a modicum of work up front.

I mean, if people install NixOS without any research up front, and throw up their hands in disgust when it doesn't look like Red Hat Enterprise for Big Boys v10, does that mean that NixOS are messing up, and they should change how they do things?

I think not.

Sometimes the simplest alternative implementations require the most up-front understanding, because their simplicity challenges long-held preconceptions about how things should be.

Thats Gobo in a nutshell.

At its heart, its actually a very simple distro. Which uses simple tools, and the filesystem, to lay everything bare in front of the user.

Funnily enough, Gobo is one of the few distros where you can refer to /bin/<any-linux-executable>, and as long as actually have that pkg installed (yes, under /Programs), then /bin/xyz WILL be found. Guaranteed.

Thats by design.

This entire subthread is a bikeshed, started by mistaken assumptions ("security is broken", "some pkgs won't work", etc, etc) over their GoboHide kernel module.

None of it is true, and all too often its a curse which innovative distros have to deal with, somewhat unfairly. I mean, everything is explained in excruciating detail on their website (and was over a decade ago, when I first used it).

And still, years later, we have folks on Hacker News opining at length about how the GoboHide kernel module causes pkgs to break because they can't find /bin/whatever (FALSE), or how gobo doesn't have the ability to build pkgs (someone else brought up this gem on another subthread).

People, if you haven't come across this distro before, then please at least do the basic once-over of their website before jumping onto Hacker News and coming up with X technical reasons why this project is a failure ...

Eg: there's a fantastic essay by Hisham from long ago explaining the motivations behind Gobo:

> Opiod work was bad though, let's not avoid that.

Sorry that’s all you have to say about your employer quite literally supercharging the opioids pandemic causing unimaginable pain and destruction across America? “It was bad though.”

Let me tell you some hard truths. If you’re 20 something you don’t know Jack shit about running a business and the only reason you’re there is because the C Suite wants to “de-risk” their decision making, or the board member heard about McK during golfing with his buddies.

If Senior Leaders can’t do X, they should, you know, get training. Go to online schools, get executive MBA training. Why don’t they do that? Because that’s not really the real reason you’re there.

McK and other consultancies have been a cancer on corporate America, creating chaos in the name of “digital transformation” or whatever buzzword is new. They capitalize on most companies’ fear of being left behind and get inserted into corporations where they make the jobs of regular employees (you know, the people who you went to school with but decided not to go to McK but get a real job and who are familiar with the same types of things that you are) incredibly difficult with inane processes from “the manual”.
If chartered banks charge for ... holding cash ... don't people next create a new industry of unchartered financial institutions to hold money without charging so much? Like, safe deposit? Or insurance?

This seems like an ivory tower exercise that has not yet met the messy realities of the world.
Show HN: I built a collaborative list of resources for developers
Hi everyone!

I'm excited to share with you what I've been creating, but let me start by explaining how Dev Resources came to be.

DR started as my personal compilation of resources for development. After a few years of (messy) bookmarking, I decided it was time to put everything in one place, categorized and most importantly, available for everyone.

Since its release (October 2020), many devs have contacted me to add their own creations and favourites, increasing, even more, the number of resources. With that said, you can already guess: DR has all the things I like and find important for software development, but it can also have what you want.

Here's a brief of what you can find there:

- tools

- assets

- learning

- jobs

- product offers

- and a lot more

But you know what makes it even better?

The resources list is now open source, so everyone can contribute and be a part of it!

I hope that together we can create the biggest repository of resources for developers, so we can easily find what we need, share our creations and stay updated with new releases.

There's more coming:

- newsletter with trending resources

- deals and updates (already on the making)

- upvoting to help amazing projects stand out

- bookmarking for a more personalised experience

- communication between devs and makers

- and whatever else you guys find useful, after all, Dev Resources is made from us to us

I launched it on Product Hunt today, and I'd love your feedback. It's my first time launching there, and I've postponed it many times, always trying to get some more things done, but I think the current state is already good enough for a launch.

Anyway, I'd love to hear what you think of it!

Dev Resources: https://devresourc.es

That's it, have a nice day and enjoy Dev Resources!
The gain of a Yagi (even these ridiculously long ones) I don't think are anywhere near precise enough. Keep in mind that even a 20dB gain antenna (simplified, since radiation patterns are complicated) only focuses the radiation pattern into 3.6 degrees. That's over 7 times the diameter of the moon in the sky.

I think even at GNSS frequencies you may need Arecibo-sized antennas to get useful directivities. E.g. check this diagram: http://www.coseti.org/9006-013.htm

No, I think a phased array is a better bet, but if it's possible to steer that tightly, you'd need a shitload of antennas. Like, a shitload. E.g. US PAVE PAWS active phased array has 2677 antennas to create a 2.2 degree beam. "Only" ~4.5 moons.

I don't know the maths, but that probably means millions or billions of antennas to beamform this right.

So yeah, I'm staying with "not feasible", probably even for a superpower.
Lol, my bad, you're right. It was wildly popular, random people on the street were talking about RSS, everyone in the general non-blogging populace was swapping their favorite feeds, it was amazing. That's probably why Google shut down Reader right at the height of that amazing, broad-based popularity and basically nobody talks about it anymore.
"Traditional frameworks (e.g. Bulma) are great if you don't have lots of design experience but want to build something decent looking."

This nails it the head. As someone with very little experience in frontend technologies I found that Bulma was very clear in the purpose of each class and how they could be used together.

I'm also using a Tailwind template in another project, but probably because I didn't build it by hand, I found it harder to wrap my ahead around it.
Seems to require a Medium membership?
I don’t think so.

All loans have terms and minimum payments. So if you borrow $1000 over a year at -1% you still have to make $990 in payments, or you will default.

Hi Everyone!
I’m Ali, co-founder of Shopgram. We recently launched Shopgram (https://shopgram.io) which gathers, analyses and publishes data about Shopify stores to help merchants having a successful business.

My team and I released a Shopify app to help merchants boost their sales. Upon launch, we realized we need more data about Shopify stores. We crawled more than 1 million shops and assumed it might be useful for merchants too. With online shopping growing massively in the last few years and the additional acceleration due to the pandemic, more users have headed towards online shopping. As a result, Shopify, a platform for building online stores expedited its growth. There are many merchants who would benefit from the data about trending Shopify stores and products, so we published the gathered data for free and it was well received by Product Hunters. Learning more about Shopify stores made us wonder what challenges shop owners deal with and what their major problems are.
Throughout dealing with the challenges, we took a step back and put ourselves in a new merchant or to-be merchant position, searching for the most popular niche markets or products to sell. Price, margin, quality, delivery time, etc., can affect the product merchants are trying to sell on their website.

For this matter, first we identified Shopify-made stores, gathered their data then cleaned them. Same products with different names and vast merchandise made the process hard. We solved this by applying AI tools and Machine Learning to classify the products. e crawled and categorized stores based on products they sell so that one can explore stores or products in a category. At the end we also added a search ability on the processed data. You can see the results at https://shopgram.io

Shopgram has three main parts for addressing the challenges merchants face.
Stores - https://shopgram.io/stores Best Shopify stores created by Shopify per product categories based on geographic information.
Products: https://shopgram.io/products Popular products sold in Shopify are shown here. We’ve also added features to provide more metadata on them, how to procure such products and finally what are their similar products.
Insights: https://insights.shopgram.io Statistics which helps merchants choose the niche market to increase their sales.
We’ll be pleased if you can take a look at Shopgram and share your thoughts on how we can improve the site and make it more useful.
