Why would you even try? Surely "my card number doesn't work" is the simple and sane response. They don't need to know, or care, why.
Tailwind seems best-suited for the HTML panel on a CMS being controlled by a team that only knows the most basic of HTML and CSS, rather than by the dedicated development team. Having a front-end developer code the CSS for the project seems like a better idea than to scatter the design around the site’s HTML. The shortcut of Tailwind on huge projects feels like part of the mindset that now gives us websites with huge download sizes that frustrate mobile users because the team didn’t get the time to code efficiently.
What if the artist himself had all the crypto? Created hundreds of fake personas (addresses) and took part of the auctions to create hype on what essentially is buying his own work? Catching a few gullible people on the way.
In the US, rejecting someone from a job because of their race or sex is explicitly illegal. Maybe not in the EU. But I'm disgusted it was the US publisher that made the demand. Good luck finding a native Catalan speaker with "African-American origins." I thought this way of thinking would have disappeared in about 1965.
I agree with most of these, but the Rain Design laptop stand sucks. Why is it static when it can easily adjust based on various people's heights and use cases. This was a much better buy (I compared it to the Rain Design one side by side): https://www.amazon.com/Adjustable-EPN-Heat-Vent-Aluminum-Com...

I used vim for a decade and tried to switch to vanilla emacs.
I didn't like code navigation in emacs at all.

After a few weeks of fighting it, I switched to evil-mode emacs and was pretty happy since then.

Alternatively, this could be achieved by an affirmative action on the grantor's side. For example, require a signed transaction from a particular wallet every X months, if no transaction occurs, then trigger the switch
Yep. All of us tech folks read sites like hackernews and read all about what the latest hot Silicon Valley tech startup is doing. Or what Uber is doing. Or what google is doing. Or what Amazon is doing. And we want to be cool as well so we jump on that new technology. Whereas for the significant majority of applications out there, older less sexy technology on modern fast computers will almost certainly be good enough and probably easier to maintain.
feel you, just pointing out that trying competitive programing and their resources might give you a different point-of-view to attack the issue

At Intercoin, we have been building all kinds of distributed applications on the Ethereum blockchain, that would be useful for communities, governance, voting, etc. (You can read about them at https://intercoin.org/applications)

One of the building blocks was the ControlContract. It was designed to be a drop-in replacement for any address that might have some ability to manage a balance or call some methods of other contract. Like a multisig wallet on Bitcoin, but much enhanced.

ControlContract basically referred to an existing CommunityContract (which was responsible for managing roles and permissions), and the owner could call something like

addMethod(contractAddress, method, rolesForInvoking, rolesForEndorsing, minimum, fraction=0)

Basically, it would let some roles in the community invoke the calls, and others to endorse the all. As long as the minimum number of people with the right role endorsed (including the invoker) and at least the right fraction of people with that role, the contract would then CALL that method with the parameters of the invoker. We even allowed people with simple wallets to send a tiny amount of ethereum, like 0.0000001928 where 1928 was the invokeId, to endorse a call.

Anyway, we then said, what if we had "succession". So the owner of the contract could itself be a ControlContract. Or they might set up some groups and then renounceOwnership(). The first group would call the shots, but if they didn't successfully call a method in a certain timeout, not even calling heartbeat() before the timeout ,then the second group became empowered. If the first group came back later then they could still get everything done immediately, and the second group would be depowered until the next time. And so on down the line. This would be like a "vice president" etc.

So yeah, we built an entire system for governing communities, that would basically be flexible enough for any sort of things like that.

And you can see the code here: https://github.com/Intercoin
Sorry for the off-topic, it is a very lowerclass problem: We did Youtube episodes at 4 people and we noticed he had a private life that we didn’t want to be associated with, so we removed him from the next episodes (under a false pretense to avoid saying in public what we had discovered). So he wants 15k because we’ve kept the previous episodes online (to which he was interviewed knowingly, didn’t say anything abnormal either, there’s only his first name, and only the voice no video, it’s ~8k views, not monetized), and he said even if we removed them he’d keep on taking revenge for the next 30 years. So we estimated it wasn’t worth removing the other episodes, given the debate was still interesting, and given he would move on to whatever the next step of his plan his, and I’m not the one with control over the videos anyway. It’s very he-said-she-said/low-IQ/honor-system-with-angry-people, I’m ashamed of myself for having been involved in this dispute, I hadn’t recognized the bad side of his character earlier. In the end I think he’s just afraid that we tell his private thing in public, but the more he angers us, the more he risks one of us to leak it out of annoyance. That was 2 years ago, I would just like him to stop trying to find my address, but I’m not going to give him 15k€ either.

Just lowerclass problems.

This was the second card they'd sent me that didn't work. Couldn't use the card anywhere, and their telephone support didn't understand the issue.
Yes. Planes are designed and tested to not fail in dangerous scenarios, like overshooting the runway, having to abort takeoff at the last moment, an engine exploding, etc. The airplane falling apart is unexpected
Shouldn't that be taken care of? I just mean I made terrible Flash Games once and learned that on the first week of the job. I actually still see this on payment gateways with banks. "IF SOMETHING DOESNT HAPPEN IN 60 SECS DON'T TRY AGAIN UNTIL YOU CHECK PAYMENT WAS NOT TAKEN".
This was after a replacement card also didn't work.
I do disagree with a lot of points in this. Tailwind is noisy, and sure its not a silver bullet but it removes one thing from out todo list: css architecture. We are really bad at this, esp. naming stuff. With tailwind we are just getting things done and it looks great.

Recommending jsx styles has at least the same amount of shortcomings as tailwind, the whole post feels like „i dont like and you shouldnt either, because what i use is obviously better.“ :shrug:
> it’s the programming model of a single machine with the scale and resilience of a distributed system.

Single-system-image clustering delivers on that promise with no dependence on proprietary platforms. Linux is now slowly getting the underlying features needed to enable this (e.g. process migration and checkpointing, namespacing of all system resources), largely as a side-effect of earlier developments such as cgroups. You can already experiment with Linux-CRIU to see what the basic tech is like, it's not fully mainlined yet but it's slowly getting there.
This only works up to a point before diffraction sets in and the picture quality starts to very noticeably suffer, and comes nowhere close to the depth of field acquired with focus stacking. In fact, with stacking, the lens should be stopped down to the best f-stop anyway (f/8-11).
Didn't work anywhere I tried it, but I'll admit I didn't try it at a lot of places.

Ask HK: what to do if I have 2 hours/day?
I have a cushy job, it's busy, it's crazy, but the last 2 hours of the day, I goof off. I can't leave the office but I have nothing to do.

It's one of those soul-sucking/soul-crushing jobs, so nothing to do to make the company better, or to do a better job.

That mostly mirrors my sentiment, although I'd say that the government is inhibiting industrial growth foremost in the US, unfortunately without regard for the American workers that it hurts. Then for some strange reason, the same people who criticize industrial pollutants here turn around and revere China's industrial growth, all the while promoting "cheap goods" without taking responsibility for the pollution their goods cause there. Glaring hypocrisy.
I’ve always been confused by the popular choice of compression on tar archives. If a small portion of a gz, xz, zst, etc archive is corrupted you lose everything after it, defeating the purpose of using a stream format like Tar.

The algorithms that can recover data after the corruption like bzip2 and lzip don’t see much use these days
Thanks so much, that's really kind of you!

> Was the name a play on superhuman the email service?

It wasn't inspired by Superhuman, but the name sounded strong and gave us the flexibility to change product direction. We got lucky since a lot of people now have the association of Super-x being a tool to make you faster or more efficient.

Yes it was, it was our first public launch four weeks ago: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/superpowered-2.

You should open an issue with whoever packages that library.

Nobody expects library consumers to be experts in how to build libraries.

But this isn't any different that depending on a C library, and discovering that the Makefile they are using compiles it with -O0, and makes it super slow.

To a non-C programmer, flipping -O0 to -O3 is wizardry.

---

Point being, you are not a rust programmer, and the defaults that are good for "development" are not good for "shipping" and therefore no good for you. If your library doesn't do this right, open a bug. The library can override this, and a package that builds it should override this.
The first comment in that thread is a nod to that it's pretty much common knowledge that bank errors are never in your favor.
> Maybe I change a value in "special_page.css" and suddenly the homepage break

I'm sympathetic to this problem, having suffered through it plenty of times, but it seems like a scoping problem, and an entire library of specific functional CSS classes doesn't seem particularly well-matched to a scoping problem.

I believe everybody who says "Tailwind saved me the of work matching up CSS that was file-separated from its markup AND thinking about selector scope." And I guess this is one way to do it, but the overhead of a comprehensive property-to-class mapping seems inefficient and it's really not clear to me advantages it has over the method of the author of the article described, which also keeps markup and css in the same source file and manages scoping issues.

"About e Foundation F.A.Q

Is e Foundation a non-profit or a corporation?

e Foundation is a non-profit organization created to host, develop, support and promote pro privacy tech solutions. Some partner companies handle the commercial side of the project and help finance e Foundation.

How do you make money? Where are your revenues coming from?

Most of our incoming revenue comes from private and public donations. As a non-profit, we strongly rely on individual and corporate donations."

Basic questions

Who are the "partner companies" that "handle the commercial side" and "help finance" the foundation. If the foundation has a "commercial side" is it truly a non-profit organisation.

Who pays the salaries of the persons working for the foundation. What are those salaries.

Could Google or some other entity at some stage acquire the rights or assets of the foundation. If not, what are the legal protections against that scenario.

Are the individual and corporate donations anonymous. How can we be assured that the donors have no direct or indirect influence over the hiring decisions or operations of the foundation.

> The problem with water in the same place with high power equipment […]

Most high-end UPSes have a relay where you can run an active-high or active-low emergency power off (EPO) signal. The EPO can either be a button that is pressed manually by the staff, automatically via fire suppression system, or both/either.

The EPO can also cut-off the HVAC so oxygen is no longer fed into the area, and smoke isn't (re-)circulated.

In the US, this is probably covered in NFPA 75, "Standard for the Fire Protection of Information Technology Equipment":

emacs is very customizable.

I had the same fear before switching to emacs(in evil mode), so I changed some of the default shortcuts that I was accustomed in vim(e.g. nerdtree/treemacs). It's not that hard.

The whole enormous productivity boost that you get from Org mode(and org babel/literate programming) is well worth the temporary minor inconveniences of learning the tool.

Private companies face a higher cost of capital than equivalent public companies

Why is that? (Sorry, I never took finance 101.) Is it because public companies can more easily put up corporate ownership as collateral for the loan? Or because of the extra scrutiny they get from the SEC?
Converting non-semantic HTML names/classes to semantic HTML names/classes would require knowing the semantics which is really, really, really, hard. You can probably turn it into "big red button" easily but knowing that means "cancel-account" is hard.

Scaling up a crop doesn't really increase magnification at all, though. You're still limited by sensor resolution and reproduction ratio. Scaling up the result lets you see it from further away, but it doesn't add information that the sensor didn't capture. Whatever the reproduction ratio of the lens at the focal length you're using, that's going to determine the minimum feature size you'll be able to resolve.

My issue with tailwind is the absolutely arbitrary naming scheme, I developed something similar to tailwind but the CSS naming was created to be mnemonic and use common property values (based on top 10,000 site CSS property values and few extra). `display: flex` was `di-fl`, `display: flow` was `di-fw`, etc.

It's not a game, Roguelike made a MUD inspired online conference for their conference. I keep coming back to this. While they built it for a time-limited conference, I could see variations for long-running online communities, or even "modern" MUD games.

As a Duolingo user, I am pleasantly surprised to find this site today. This site seems to ~~solve~~ mitigate problems I've been having with tips (or more accurately, lack of tip accessibility on the iOS app for certain languages).

To be honest, I've never really thought about viewing all tips on the same page, although that is very convenient. A fine feature that should probably be adopted by Duolingo as well.

The convenient one-page format ~~solves~~ mitigates a different issue I've been having lately though. Duolingo doesn't consistently publish (existing!) tips to all Duolingo frontends/apps. Well-supported languages get the best tip-content support, but languages that aren't as supported sometimes don't have tip present even if the tip content exists.

For example:

- Duolingo Web always has tips if tip content exists. This acts like a source of truth, as far as I'm aware.

- Spanish is a language which has tip content both on Web and iOS. I believe this is because Spanish is popular and well-supported.

- Greek is a language where tip content is not accessible via the iOS app, but is present on the web site. I believe this is because incorporating the presentation of tips is probably some hardcoded markup thing (React?) and nobody has gotten around to doing it yet. Also, there's a possibility that the underlying documents need different rendering treatment or style enforcement, and have been omitted from the mobile app on purpose. Still, this is a thorn in my side.

So for me, a one-page-tips fills a gap in the Duolingo UX (which should probably probably be fixed on Duolingo's end since this simply seems to be a prioritization/maintenance/time/effort problem).

As a user, I'd like an easy way to refer to the tips before each lesson without pulling up the actual Duolingo web app - otherwise, why don't I just do my actual lessons on the web app as well? Usually I'm doing lessons on my phone, not my computer, because the phone is not only more convenient (small) but it's easier to change keyboards and type in non-latin alphabets.

I have a similar plan with my current project [0] of interactive coding docs. The library to build the docs would be OSS. So anyone could build it and use it in their projects, But the business of hosting courses, payment, an advanced UI for building the docs would all be a SaaS. I think it's a nice balance that gives you the best of both worlds.

Vi's sense of composability. For example, 'd' is the delete command, but what does it delete? It deletes across a motion. What is a motion? Could be any movement mode supported by the editor, which ranges from simple cursor motions to motions involving words or blocks to forms of searching to raw line number jumps.

So, once you learn a vi command, you can use it with all the motions you already know, and once you learn a motion, you can use it with all the commands you already know.

The other aspect, that is more insidiously useful: vi is almost everywhere, and will easily fit on an embedded system. It's a rare server that doesn't have it, either. This is definitely vi, not vim, when I say this, though.
