> FWIW, as a general rule, I disagree: say you get to use two pieces of software with the same functionality, shortcuts et. al. for similar amounts of time, the first having 0 regard towards UI/UX, and the second having spent some time thinking about how it presents information and overall legibility. I'd be more than extremely surprised if most users couldn't possibly end up being more efficient using the second.

The Windows 95 through 2000 UI, I think, expresses the second idea perfectly. Rather than being clunky like older versions, they had thought put into how the layout and presentation looked. Granted, some of its qualities stemmed from needing to be renderable on a 386 in reasonable time, it still achieved something both visually appealing and productive.

In contrast, whatever fad comes around to make buttons look like Play-Doh or glass or flat elements with no distinguishing features... they take away from it quite a lot.

If they weren't rulers, you could simply choose not to comply with those rules you found irrelevant or misguided. I note that you felt constrained to add the bracketed bit -- I would submit that that's the fig leaf.

You can argue that the doctor is being helpful when they tell a four-year-old "this won't hurt a bit", but the naked truth is that it's a lie, and the child has no actual choice in the matter. Similarly, you can argue that your MP or state senator has your best interests at heart (and some may!), but that doesn't mean they don't rule you.

Somehow, I found this line particularly funny. Simple systems and heuristics like keyword searching continue to power and protect systems around the world, triggering false positives (and negatives) that can often be opaque to outside observers.

Will ML and NLP eventually overtake these systems, bringing along their own pros/cons? Or will these systems continue to proliferate into the far future, such that in the distant year 2077, some poor traveler gets dragged out for special screening because they listed "burgundy" in their customs manifest?

I'm at a year and a half. Hacker News is turning into Reddit. It's following the exact same path, albeit thankfully slower, and the causes behind that path—influx of users, need for attention, karma lust—aren't causes that Paul is looking to fix.

I think you've touched on something essential here. It may explain the continuous appeal of open source.

Maybe it also explains how even though work is perpetually exhausting, somehow I still find energy to work on side projects, just so I can feel some uninhibited creativity.

fundamentally Bitcoin is a means of wastefully burning energy to get other people to give you cash. energy to cash conversion, by producing waste. that is immoral. at this level of inefficiency it is particularly vulgar but the premise is demonic, at any scale.
Sell it, or loan it out. There are numerous ways to (temporarily) convert financial assets to cash without just selling them. That could be used to invest in the local economy, for example, but again to my point, it's not. And all of that is moot anyway because for ordinary citizens, your income is taxed based on your total assets (including stock), not just on your actual cash money that you receive each year.

It's axiomatic of monarchy, not a thought process or reasoned argument. If the monarch owns all the wealth in the country, then if the wealth of the country goes down, the wealth of the monarch goes down. If the laborers die, if the resources are mismanaged, etc. then the monarch's wealth and power diminishes (because the laborer's lives and the resources are the monarch's wealth). A monarch may choose to spend their wealth (including your life) to take over more territory, but they are spending their own wealth to achieve that goal.

This is categorically different from a democracy where the leadership's wealth is separated from the nation's. If the laborers die, the President is not impacted in the least. A President may choose to spend your life and money to take over new territory and increase their power, but they are spending your wealth to do it, not their own. If the resources are mismanaged you are harmed, not the President.

"Effective" to me means "achieves desired outcome". You seem to be using a different definition.

If a city represents the interests of its residents and the residents share an interest in material safety, then the question becomes: which strategies provide the residents as a whole with the most safety for the least expenditure? And which strategies are the most in harmony with the resident's other interests (e.g., equality, human dignity)?

Your defense boils down to "users are too stupid".

Sure, but, at some point, the users need to take blames for their own actions too.

"I'm too stupid" can't be the defense for everything.
I feel like this isn't one of those things you shouldn't force. If an idea comes along it should be from prior experience, and more importantly if it's an idea you can't stop thinking about where your months and years down the line and if its still in your head, it's probably worth pursuing.

I run a script called "shreddit" I found on GitHub that edits and then deletes your comments. It's configured via a YAML file and you can whitelist or filter stuff that you want deleted.

websdr is a gateway drug. It's still an amazing resource but I just want to also give props to kiwisdr just because of one amazing feature: TDOA localization.

go here - http://rx.linkfanel.net/

pick a radio and tune to a station

click the 'extensions' dropdown at the bottom right and select 'TDoA'

give the extension a bit to load at the bottom left

pick a set of radios from the map (blue boxes) that are close enough to likely hear the station you're tuned to until you get 4-5 radios filled in the form on the bottom left.

click 'Submit'

if you get any red 'X' indicators click the scissors and try again. you should see a little circle clock while it collects samples, then the extension will attempt to plot likely locations for the transmitter.

really cool i think

Show HN: How you got your first 10 users for your product?
We are all building some kind of product or business and gaining the initial set of users can be a difficult task.

They are not only the users, but they play a very big role as they believed in your product, they should provide the non-biased review about your product and that will define how you'll shape your product.

So, I would be grateful if you can share the process of getting your initial set of users.

By this, we'll learn from each other's experience, we'll appreciate each other's effort and help out the maker who need help with their initial set of users.

Hi, the author here. Thanks for posting this! The Python behind the scenes series covers how different aspects of Python are implemented in the CPython interpreter. This time we'll ask and answer the following question: How is Python able to support arbitrary large integers? More specifically, we'll learn:

* How CPython represents arbitrary-precision integers.
* How CPython implements arbitrary-precision arithmetic, such as addition and multiplication.
* How CPython's implementation of arbitrary-precision arithmetic compares to other implementations.

I welcome your feedback and questions. Thanks!

A lot of this land and property is privately owned by the royal family but leased to the government, I’m not exactly versed in UK law; but a governmental attempt to seize a private citizens land seems like it wouldn’t be the smoothest thing to attempt to pull off.
This part is truly strange. This example from the tutorial drove it home for me:

match event.get():
case Click(position=(x, y)):
handle_click_at(x, y)
case KeyPress(key_name="Q") | Quit():
game.quit()

where `Click(position=(x, y))` is not at all what one would expect.

What I still don't understand is: does the new syntax magically do this to a user-defined class? i.e. if I say

foo = Click(position=(x, y))

vs

...
case Click(position=(x, y))

those identical expressions, for the same value of Click, have widely different semantics?

I view British monarchy as tyranny prevention mechanism. Democracies are notoriously weak and can collapse at any momemnt by a charasmatic leader. Any long lasting democracies need some serious mechanisms to squash the tyranny. In American version this is achieved by having 3 almost equally powerful branches of governments. In British version, this is achieved by subdued monarchie. It's much like injecting a dead virus in the body. As monarchie already exist in the British system, there cannot be a separate tyrant rising up. At the same time, monarchs themselves cannot become tyrant as they have been heavily subdued to essentially act as dead-man walking. In many ways, this is more ingenious than American system, although more expensive and less intutive. In American system, there is still a good chance that a single party can dominate all 3 branches and tyranny might still emerge. In Briish system, this is near impossible.
Exactly. "Complex systems almost always fail in complex ways." If a system is complex and yet stable enough that it's running in production, it's frequently running in a partially degraded state and at least partially resistant to single component failures. Noticeable failures reaching the level of root-cause analysis almost certainly involve multiple component failures, each with proximate and root causes. Recursively decompose those component failures if the components themselves are complex, and you're left with many "root" causes.
It surely opens a repo in VSCode, but it doesn't seem to have any language server support built in. For example, if I open a Go repository, I can't navigate code (Go to references, Find references etc). GitHub Workspaces (although takes waaay longer to provision) is better at this. I wish GitHub did a faster loading read-only version like this.
I think that the functional aspect of Dart and the near-immediate mode that flutter provides are a godsend. UI in other languages is a sticky mess of callbacks and dealing with anything multithreaded is a chore. Flutter just rebuilds and rebinds everything once the state changes (you'd be surprised how fast it is!)
That's a neat idea! Although the last three places I've lived have been over eighty years old. I guess when you get that far back in time, you can usually assume that the building is pretty darn solid.
