I don’t know about that specific legislation. The effect you describe makes me think that business and government are, in fact, right leaning.
When left-wing groups agree with right-leaning govt and business, perhaps the general public is a bit wary of bipartisan policies. An argument like: If it’s popular among partisans of both parties, then it must be particularly exploitative of the general public.
Size of the market is also important.

Text editor for 30€ is a good business, everyone needs a text editor.

Database client for 30€ is probably a little less profitable, not as many people need that.

Client for a specific database like the protein data bank for 30€ -- well, you might sell two or three copies.

All of these are probably a similar amount of work, but you can't sell them for the same price.

That being said, a menu bar widget has such a huge market that I don't see why they are pricing it so high.
SQLite is really great at crunching data! I definitely prefer it over pandas in most cases, as SQL is naturally fit to joins, aggregates etc. Also SQLite works natively with JSON, which is a huge time saver.

Especially since last_insert_rowid() can never be free of race condition, and is basically useless whenever ON CONFLICT is involved.
“Cancel culture” works because a majority goes along with it.. if it really was just the shrill minority everyone frets about everyone could ignore them, but it’s also lots of persuaded people who either agree or don’t disagree strongly enough to ignore them.

I think the truth is the majority has no appetite for the culture wars and mostly doesn’t want to be out of step with “normal” - their default lack of conviction is often mistaken for tacit support by both sides of an issue.
> The digital files may have been taken from the CD since nobody can be bothered to go back and find the masters anymore.

All my music collection is FLAC files, bit-perfectly ripped from my CD collection. So, sure, they're digital files, compressed, but lossless. It is, for all practical purposes, just as good as a CD (as long as my external DAC is as good as the CD players' built-in DAC).

The original CD may have been badly engineered but that's another topic.

3 000 CDs fits in more or less 1 TB in lossless (but compressed) CD quality (just to give an idea of how tiny it is using modern storage standards).

Some people only use FLAC as archives but these files are so tiny in this day and age that I don't bother converting the FLAC to mp3s: I sent directly the bitperfectly ripped FLAC files to my DAC / stereo setup.
It goes back af least that far in software, with the original fuzzing work from U. Wisc and McKeeman's "Differential Testing for Software". Those are blackbox techniques; AFL's advance was using a general grey box approach.

Yeah, I'm not at all convinced of the garbage man satellite idea. The Delta-V calculations only make sense if the craft is very big. And all the very big ones are in GEO, not LEO, where it's even harder to achieve.

Lasers that act as a long term external pressure for small stuff, maybe. But the laser strength, object tracking and object targeting tech still has a long long way to go before that is viable.

Reduce, reuse, recycle. In that order. We need to start applying it to space too. The most viable path to reducing space debris right now is not creating it in the first place. Through reusable rockets, miniaturization, and removing mechanisms that give off less debris during operation like stopping the use of explosive bolts or reducing the need for protective coverings. Lowering the regulated maximum 25 year lifespan of a satellite further would also be an option.

> In the short term. Determining the status quo isn't up to censors.

I don't agree. Before WWII, America had a very small standing army. It was practically an American value that the country demilitarized after each war. But from 1900 through WWI and especially through WWII there was a deliberate effort by the government and elites to change that. In just 40 years America went from barely militarized to having a large and expensive standing force that was viewed as a bedrock of American virtues.

Similar things happened throughout history regarding sanitation, citizenship, traffic laws and more. I believe the information ecosystem has a tremendous impact on people's beliefs and values.
Eugene Debs was an out and out socialist, who led the most violent strike in US history. You can make an argument that he didn't make it violent -- that was the Pinkertons -- but he didn't get tossed in jail because he ran an opposition party a la Navalny.

He's not the boogyman that some would make him out to be, but he didn't pull punches, either.

Got 3% of the US vote behind bars, too.

Well if we're at a point where people believe 5G caused Coronavirus, Bill Gates wants to implant microchips into people to control their minds and so on, I think almost any education helps. ;) The article puts it quite well, there seems to be an anti-education, anti-science movement going on, and if you look at history, it wouldn't be the first time that an advanced civilization somehow turns around 180° and starts rejecting science and turns to religion and superstition, even without the help of externally seeded misinformation.

> and trying to build up the corporations that helped get us in this mess because their worldview can't really handle manufacturing probably won't help either.

For now just letting them be and, as the article suggest as well, milking them for that sweet tax money that could go into education would be a start. That also doesn't exclude regulating them in other ways.
In postgresql:

The DROP COLUMN form does not physically remove the column, but simply makes it invisible to SQL operations. Subsequent insert and update operations in the table will store a null value for the column. Thus, dropping a column is quick but it will not immediately reduce the on-disk size of your table, as the space occupied by the dropped column is not reclaimed. The space will be reclaimed over time as existing rows are updated.

Wii Sports was a good bit of entertainment at times with my family, but I spent many nights playing Mario kart online with strangers, or playing Zelda Breath of the Wild and a few others.
Being in lockdown is frustrating but the opportunity to explore a digital world and engage with other people online is a good distraction.

This sounds incredible.

I am going to have to do some testing. Right now, we lock on a single SQLiteConnection instance because of the fact that insert & id retrieval are 2 separate invocations. If we can get away with just a single ExecuteQueryAsync<long>(MyUpdateSql, MyObject) call and it's thread safe, then we could drop a ton of locking abstractions at the application level.

There's definitely an old internet culture that eschews social media and it has seemed to grow (again) over the years. One example is Freenode:

- The network has some moderation, but bans are last resorts where on social media bans and temporary bans are part of the process.

- Much of the moderation is left to channel operators and guides are given by the network on how to moderate.

- Much of the network is apolitical and you can even be banned for talking about politics in many channels. This runs counter to pop-culture with encourages not only discussing politics but airing your politics with known dissidents.

- Nearly every channel is topic focused, where pop-culture and social media encourage broad, boundaryless discussion.

- Pseudoanonymity is still an option; in contrast to real identity policies in social media.

You can't tell me that's not culture, but maybe it's not a whole culture just yet. That said, keep poking the bear cub and see if it doesn't grow up.
You can also turn on the `strict` feature for C compatibility, but without any way to get the type definitions into a C header it's kind of pointless.

I wish they had screenshots for each component.

My foray into webcomponents was at mixpanel and I helped build the component library at https://design.mixpanel.com

Before I was skeptic on webcomponents but using it on production for many years, it’s a great layer of abstraction and works well with native dom and html. All major browsers now support it without polyfills. A lightweight virtual dom library like snabbdom + webcomponents is a good match.

Component driven development is the way to go and web components is a tool that every web dev should keep in their belt.
Alas not, I don't think I've ever used Stripe, except as a user.
Why would it?

It does if and only if that's what you reduce extremism down to.

There's enough there to assert a quadratic relationship (in a given regime) with _their particular phenomenological measurement_ of extremism.

In the physical sciences we can often get away with ignoring the difference between what a measurement procedure outputs, and what it is measuring. But this only because we have high degrees of repeatability, and concordance with other ways of measurement. Neither has been shown to apply here.

The reporting of this is made worse by the use of a common term, rather than the diagnostic tool. Yes, there are common meanings of "energy", "momentum", and so forth, but people understand that they mean very specific technical definitions when a physicist uses them.

There’s 40% of the population you’re missing that doesn’t participate in social media because their ideas have been banned. Sure, they might have a Facebook or a Twitter but nothing substantive happens there. They believe in things like gun rights, freedom of speech and religion, and they often go to meeting places called a “church”, which these days could be considered “counter-culture”. Their values don’t come from TV or Hollywood movies but instead have been passed down from generation to generation.

From my experience people from US costal states seem to think these people are a small minority (5%) and tend to be shocked every time an election comes around.

An analysis of what is efficacious for opposing "extremism" is pointless without also looking at the cause(s) of that "extremism" or being able to identify natural experiments.

Natural experiments: looking at Germany and noticing that there are still lots of Nazis doesn't mean those interventions were not effective, as you don't know what would've happened using other regimes (or just doing nothing). You haven't tested the most basic alternative hypothesis that would confound using this data in this way.

Causes: this is a big can of worms, particularly on a forum where "politics" is frowned upon, which really means that anything non-normative that could cause significant disagreement is frowned upon. But unless you can identify driving forces of, e.g., Nazis and their recruitment, talking about effective interventions is premature and reductive.

> The issue with categorizing gender dysphoria as a mental illness is no different than categorizing homosexuality as a mental illness.

What is the issue with that? From what I see, homosexuality doesn't harm anyone, so even if were scientifically an "illness", it's not worse than infertility. It is a private matter. Gender on the other hand is social. If gender dysphoria requires invasive medical treatments, constant hormonal therapy and extreme effort to not trigger bad reactions, then it seems like a real disability. So why not treat that then, and hope that people can accept themselves the way they are?

This seems like an absolutely reasonable and understanding position to me, but a lot of people are aggressively opposed to it. I guess that's what trans people feel like, when everyone thinks you are crazy for something that seems perfectly logical to oneself.
I'm pretty sure the fact that it's impossible to turn a profit in any of the "family" small scale dairy farms is a little more important than how hard the work is.

Hi HN,

I'm Santiago, I've worked on many side projects in the past and always stumbled on getting distribution for them. Last year I stumbled on Twitter and found it is a great platform to share ideas and connect with people.

As I was getting more involved with Twitter I could not found a methodology to follow for "connecting with the people I care" and getting more distribution for my projects.

As an ML engineer I find that best decisions are backed by data, I also found the native Twitter Analytics valuable yet insufficient for a growing my audience.

I implemented a cutsom Analytics Dashboard to have the data I need on a daily basis. Hopefully this launch get us some momentum prior to our YC application, we hope to receive nice feedback and maybe connect with persons that have a similar problem.

I mostly excited about the potential application of analyzing tweets with NLP, I implemented a real-time Sentiment Analyzis that helps predict the expected engagement and the Tweet's ton. The next step will be clustering the tweets by topic using word-embeddings. The feature is powered by TensorflowJS and I made a rough vide about the code: https://youtu.be/YOVGnAk1vQk.

To celebrate our launch we have prepared a Hacker News deal with a 1-full year subscription discount for $25:: https://gumroad.com/l/socialQ/hacker_news ,ideally we can find early users that want to have a high input in the product. The Demo Dashboard is powered by my own Analytics, you can also connect your Twitter account for free. However, we do plan to limit the amount of features for the free users in the future.

Finally, we have prepared a guide detailing how to grow on Twitter using the Dashboard: https://twitter.com/SocialQ_HQ/status/1370463868972109824

OP here.

You are spot on. I actually built TweetSpacer because there are lot of existing players in the market.

I've spent 2.5 years building "original" products that never made me any money.

So I decided to try something totally different this time, I decided to go into an existing market and just put my spin on it and produce a product with good build quality.

I figure the market for social media automation tools is monopolistic and so I think that if I make a good product, talk to customers and carve out a niche I could have a small business.

It may not work. It could blow up in my face. But so far it's the first thing I've made that's generated any revenue. Not much yet, but it's better than the $0 I was stuck at for so long.

I used to loathe the idea of making something that's already out there, but I kept thinking about pepsi. Why does pepsi exist? I still don't know why. I like coke. But I think it's ok to have multiple proudcts that achieve a similar task. There's lots of dimensions you can compete on.
I think platforms like onlyfans will end up bringing back counterculture, especially if more platforms emerge outside the uber-censorious US and esp, if they can embrace new forms of payments. porn is showing the way once again

I always figured Netflix didn't crack down on this because they knew the risk they run by pursuing it and had weighted out the risk vs reward and concluded that the value of having a larger market out-weighted what they might be able to squeeze out of their current customers. I guess this might mean Netflix is looking forwards and are expecting less from a growing market as the competitive pressure from Disney, Amazon etc. and are thinking that they'd better try to claw in some profit expecting not to grow their market?
