It's a poorly written, pseudo-intellectual screed whining about their treatment after being held accountable for their actions, which they don't even get to until halfway through the article. There's a lot of empty name dropping, and no real apology or understanding about what they did wrong.

I was so disappointed in the article I looked up what this website was and learned that I shouldn't have even wasted my time reading it.

There's much better ways to write about the issue and lead a discussion than this article.

So instead of writing all that, I dropped the URL for others to decide if they wanted to wanted to bother reading it or not.
compared to the size of entities like COSCO and Maersk, flexport has no clout, scale or ability to "disrupt" anything.

turns out that disrupting things in software is easier, disrupting physical things in the real world that are heavy and cumbersome, more difficult.
>(from memory I think WordMaster (an earlier WP that predated WordStar), was actually first—someone correct me if I'm wrong)

From a cursory search, it seems that WordMaster is the direct predecessor to WordStar, programmed by the same person.

I wouldn't go so far as to say it is ignorant, but just imagine if some english speaking person named their programming language or product "Bird", and one of the top comments brought up the fact that it was similar to a racial slur in their language.

I'm not saying it is wrong to point this out, but it must be slightly disheartening for the author of the language. And more importantly, Bangladesh was literally called East Pakistan, so I'm sure whoever made this is aware of the actual racial slur.

Also please note, I'm actually Bangladeshi, so I'm not speaking for a group I don't represent here.
I guess a hint would be fine, but charging for access, even bulk access, feels quite contrary to the spirit of the project. It excludes huge ranges of people who cannot afford it or don't have access to Internet payment methods.

I suspect the traffic caused by this is minuscule compared to the overall traffic, anyway. But that's just a guess.
I think you're thinking about SMR - Shingled Magnetic Recording. The tracks overlap because the heads are larger for writing than for reading, so writing can be a destructive process and data must be rewritten when adjacent data is written.

These types of drives are fast for sequential writes, but any operations that edit data may be slow. Additionally, the drive spends time when idle clicking around to "defragment" the shingles IIRC.
Hi, I just launched Hosty.Page. The idea is that it reduces the process of deploying a web app to a single API call, making it easy to get a site live. You can easily build it into CI/CD pipelines and generate previews for your sites quickly. There is a pro plan that adds support for custom domain names and removes the site expiry. Sites are deployed to an AWS CloudFront instance with SSL
art fakes are also a tax dodge. must have the piece in a museum share for a set % of time, in a freeport, etc.

Was a great storyline on this in the recent half season of Billions!

The billionaire keeps the real ones at his house & the fakes in a freeport (probably happens in real life a lot of Billions story lines are based in real world gossip - e.g. BDSM Schneiderman)

In a funny scene prosecutor Chuck finds out and 'spills' wine on the real Van Gough and Bobby the billionaire has a epic grimace

the end solution was the billionaire brought in the works by stealth helicopter at night then opened a new non-profit museum for fake art in his apartment to get the tax deduction. totally unreasonable and pointless but an entertaining show.

> All of the structures within these settlements were completely burned and destroyed

This is only a paradox is the burning was meant to rid the structures of something while remaining usable - something specific to fumigation.

Maybe the structures, and some of their contents, needed to be destroyed due to some unknown contaminating negative (black magic/spirits, insects/pests, disease) - maybe even the whole settlement?
Nobody is expecting any evidence from just a question - they indeed expect anecdotes. How was/is the situation for other people. Getting empathy.
I got a kick out of the sensational tone. I’ve seen this pattern at many public meetings for spending road improvement budgets and the like. There certainly is no deviation from the plan based on anything that happens in these meetings. However, the participation by the lower level facilitators is more fairly described as work-a-day rather than malicious.
Isn’t “Paki” just shortened for “Pakistani”? I never knew the word itself to be considered racist; but it’s definitely been used often in a racist / degenerative context and manner.

I was responding to your off-hand comment "You know what else is expensive? Entire cities being under 6ft of ocean and having to relocate hundreds of millions of people."

Characteristics are not requirements. Anyway, my original claim was that it was similar not identical.
"Wright examines the techniques of intelligence services, exposes their ethics, notably their 'eleventh commandment', 'Thou shalt not get caught.' He described many MI5 electronic technologies (some of which he developed), for instance, allowing clever spying into rooms, and identifying the frequency to which a superhet receiver is tuned. In the afterword, he said that he wrote the book chiefly to work to regain compensation for losses of significant pension income when the British government ruled his pension for earlier work in GCHQ was not transferable."

This also reminds me of Cuatro Ciénegas Basin in Mexico. It is studied because its life forms are directly connected to the Oxygenation period our Earth went through. Below the surface, there are a lot of creatures that cannot exist anywhere else (that we know of) on Earth, and that thrive in this environment that would kill just about any other life form. They are considered some of the most primitive oligotrophic life we know of still around today.

Some responses to the logic you followed in this thread.

1. There's no good reason to assign the sweeping and inherently-fuzzy category "white" to mean "prejudice + institutional power". Even given your (oversimplified) observation about colonialism, that's neither a necessary nor sufficient reason to apply a label that will be inherently over-generalized. It is simple historic fact that many "white" (per current definition) peoples had no role in colonialism and enjoyed no (local or global) institutional power. If this claim is mystifying to you, you may need to learn about white people outside of America or western Europe. So, the proposed semantic shortcut is inherently unjust to a portion of humanity.
To the degree that this (arbitrary aesthetic) choice does harm... it is, in itself, racist.

2. To make the argument above, does not require "pretending colonialism wasn't a thing." Those are separate debates.

3. But even setting aside #1 & #2, it is, of course, far more debatable how current elites got their status. What frame are you using? The US? "The west"? The world? I would say that even the presumption that "current elites" can reasonably be described as "white" would be quite wrong in all three cases (escalatingly so, in order). But the notion that dominance was wholly established by extractive colonialism is something that could only pass for true in a deeply incestuous echo chamber. By the time colonialism even started there were already wide gaps in technological and economic development of various societies, and given how development has unfolded, it's likely the gaps we see today would exist even without colonial interference. Differential development since colonialism ended also attests to the fact that colonialism and hard force are only factors in development, not determinants.
Finally, all this ignores the broad strokes of human history: across all geographies and times, human societies have discriminated against and dominated each other. Maybe occasionally, maybe perpetually, but it's basically always there. At a certain point, it became possible to do so at longer distances, at larger scale and across larger cultural experience gaps -- but human awfulness didn't start 15th century.
So again, making motivated aesthetic choices about naming descriptions of social systems and types of interpersonal behavior after an identity group that does not actually map to them is aptly described as racist. Not under the new, stipulative definition, which runs afoul of all these issues, but under the older and more useful definition that could be summarized as "harming or hating people on the basis of their race/skin color".
Am I a Pathological Case?
It feels like going back one or two hundred years is, in some ways, even more of a cultural shift than going to another country is today. I come across gems all the time that are products of the times and deeply insightful. Which happens with interacting with other countries today too. Both are profound and in similar, but different ways.

Storing information in the URL itself is a grossly underutilized way to allow users to control their own data. If data is stored in the URL, there is often no need to send it to a server. And since URLs are so widely-supported, sharing the data is inherently easy.

For example, it takes about 3 lines of JavaScript to store and retrieve a base64-encoded, stringified JSON object in the URL fragment (the part after the # – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URI_fragment).

"With Perseverance departing from its touchdown site, mission team scientists have memorialized the spot, informally naming it for the late science fiction author Octavia E. Butler. The groundbreaking author and Pasadena, California, native was the first African American woman to win both the Hugo Award and Nebula Award, and she was the first science fiction writer honored with a MacArthur Fellowship. The location where Perseverance began its mission on Mars now bears the name 'Octavia E. Butler Landing.'

[...]

'Butler’s protagonists embody determination and inventiveness, making her a perfect fit for the Perseverance rover mission and its theme of overcoming challenges,' said Kathryn Stack Morgan, deputy project scientist for Perseverance. 'Butler inspired and influenced the planetary science community and many beyond, including those typically under-represented in STEM fields.'

[...]

Butler, who died in 2006, authored such notable works as 'Kindred,' 'Bloodchild,' 'Speech Sounds,' 'Parable of the Sower,' 'Parable of the Talents,' and the 'Patternist' series. Her writing explores themes of race, gender, equality, and humanity, and her works are as relevant today as they were when originally written and published."

Yeah — I agree that it’s an interesting idea.

I was trying to understand if I’d pictured what you said right: you have two teams each doing that cycle half a phase out of step so one team does systems 1,3,5... and the other does 2,4,6....

I was picturing situations like finance, data centers, SCADA, etc.

I think a lot of people don’t realize that when you have a cycle timed right, your eg architects don’t just sit idle. They’re only on “maintain” for a year before they start on the next system upgrade.

It’s a good idea.
Curated information discovery and sharing that I genuinely cannot get anywhere else in a public manner - maybe Lobsters is a competitor, but that's focused exclusively on software development. I have more than a handful of articles and comments favorited here that have helped me either help others or help myself either professionally or recreationally; they've directed me to create personal projects, given me conversation topics, helped me get the most out of interviews with companies, identify social habits and trends.

There's a lot of noise in regards to the signal-to-noise ratio, and I have my own biases and petty views (i.e., it's common for users to post articles from people I dislike sharing the same industry with), but there's simply so much to open yourself up to in terms of even reading the comments for a submission I flat-out dislike or otherwise don't particularly care for.

There haven't been any miracles on this website in terms of feeling part of a unified community or experiencing random bouts of generosity in person-to-person interactions, but I consider spending time on HN so valuable that I'd willingly pay a membership fee to preserve some kind of member standard like SomethingAwful hoped to do with the "10bux" membership fee (paying $10 to access the site's forums).

And possibly sql query optimizations.
In most cases, efficient indexes should be enough to maintain reasonable performance.

But in cases where scale gets exponentially bigger at a rate at which you cannot possibly keep adding computing resources, breaking the best followed practices is the only way to get more performance without adding hardware resources at the same rate as increased scale, this at times includes but is not limited to, getting rid of foreign keys, coupling your app logic along with your db to to breakdown larger tables periodically/automatically/ runtime creation. This though requires skills across the entire stack and has it's fair share of downfalls and is never a recommended practice unless you know what you're doing and are okay with compromising on some of ACID properties. since maintaining something like this becomes unsustainable without contingencies.
Take all of this with some grain of salt as the topic is highly subjective.

"Real lived experience" is heavily overrated nowadays, in all sorts of domains. A bunch of individual anecdotes is not data - at least not before people have taken the time to tally them up properly, which usually happens on generation-level timescales.

The same logic is applicable to news headlines. I purposely avoid consuming major news outlets because their job is to sell my eyeballs to the highest bidder. If I instead focus on learning about the most significant events starting at N years in the past and going backwards, I’m much more likely to be learning about only those events that history has judged to be historically significant.

There’s a saying that “You always read about the one plane that crashes, not the millions that land safely.” The job of news media is to shock, awe, and transfix the public for the benefit of the shareholders. My bet / hope is that authors of history books don’t operate under the same economic model.

Jeff Bezos admonishes his employees to focus on the things about society and human nature which don’t change, rather than the things which do change, if they hope to move the needle at Amazon. I feel like that advice is broadly applicable to the public and those who are generally civic-minded, not just those who want to succeed in business.

That's actually a counter example to what you're trying to say.

In this case you are arguing that Russian law should follow a citizen, where as the US said it shouldn't. So the "precedent" that was set (if in fact there was one set) in a case from 20 years ago in which the case against the accused was dropped, was actually that your laws don't follow you around.
To be fair in this case it’s specifically a site about a framework famous for server rendering, so you kind of expect it to work without JS.
For me that actually ended up the only way to gain access back to an old account of mine. Luckily I was able to cooperate with the new owner of the number, and he was helpful enough to give me the code that was sent, otherwise I'd have lost a Google account with several hundred euros of purchases on it, despite having the password, control of the backup email, knowing all security questions, and knowing the exact date the account was registered (the only issue was that mobile carriers here re-issue phone numbers after 6 months without any calls, and I had put the SIM into a tablet).
