I chunk of it has to be. One money laundering idea I had a while back was to set up an "App Store", where certain organizations could publish real apps. You could fill it with "Yoga zen sounds", "Daily bible quote" and astrology apps and maybe allow the publishers to generate them by having templates where only the names are changed. They could then "buy" their own apps anonymously and have a legit stream of cash that way. The store would take 0.5% commission.

This is obviously a bad idea for all kinds of reasons, and I would never do it, but once I had the idea it's kinda hard to imagine that someone else is not already doing it. Fun to think about non the less.

Anyway, this art trading stuff seams way easier.
Wormholes, maybe?
So one thought I had: You can relax the burden of proof without having false accusations if you disincentivize accusations. It could work like this: If a woman accuses a man of rape, you accept it as true no questions asked. You imprison her for a month, and imprison him for two years.
Ask HN: What are some Clubhouse clubs that you most enjoy?
What the title says and also some other questions.

I realize these are many questions, but you don’t need to answer any more of them than you want to.

- How much time do you spend on Clubhouse in a day? In a week?

- When do you listen to Clubhouse?

- Do you talk or listen only?

- What types of content do you most enjoy on Clubhouse?

- What types of content do you least enjoy on Clubhouse?

- What types of content do you think is most compatible with the Clubhouse format?

- What types of content do you think is least compatible with the Clubhouse.

- What kind of content do you think is currently missing from Clubhouse?

- Do you listen to Clubhouse while you work? If so, what kind of work are you doing?
A couple of years ago I got to push some trapped ion's around in the quantum computer under development at the University of Sussex [0]. Very cool, seeing the glowing ions on a monitor and moving them in 1-micron steps via the cursor keys.

You get to realise how sensitive this stuff is when you hear it took them 3 weeks to track down a single hair that was contaminating their (extensive) vacuum system.

Beeple is a modern master of his craft. He can host it on Deviant art, xvideos or bestgore if he so pleases. Doesn't take away the craft and the endless hours of sweat put into its mastery.

Even picasso was alleged to have told a diner to pay him an absurd amount of money for his napkin sketch - because it took him a few decades to get to draw like he did.

And I think Picasso's artworks are trash.

I think you are right that mull/h are fused. I think that M1 has 128 ALUs for the vector unit, so it would be a good way to make use of them. M1 is far from the first iteration of the architecture and Apple has likely picked most if not all low hanging fruits. It also helps x86 emulation I guess.

edit: but see the comment else thread about the loop iteration time being off by a factor of 2.

I've seen people take the advice of "build something that could be useful to someone" the wrong way so many times.
That "someone" shouldn't be an abstract, hypothetical customer but a group of people that contains someone you intimately know, such as a close friend, partner or yourself.
I think "build something that would be useful to someone that you personally know, and many others like them" is a much more concrete way to think about the problem, and will enable you to achieve success with high probability.

Any situation where money meets art doesn't make any sense. Is the original of a Banksy painting any nicer to look at than a copy? Is a rare vinyl pressing of a record any nicer to listen to than an mp3 you can download for free?
Ask the same question: what if people don't like the local restaurant food (new chef puts too much salt) and they lost the patrons? Is that cancel culture? No. Cancel culture is when you want to close the restaurant for everyone when the owner's daughter refused to date you versus not eating there because you don't like the food, but you don't interfere with others eating there because they like the food. It's "I don't buy" vs "close them down".
Don’t get too hung up on it. While it’s cool to be a great grandparent, a great grandparent has tons of grand kids, and a lot of them don’t really give that much of a shit about you at the end of the day unless you’re some kind of interesting person. No descendants will care about you as much as your immediate children. I love my grandparents, but barely see them or talk to them even knowing the time is short.

Think of the advantage of having kids later: Your kids get to be born into a deeper and better future, and may some day enter the 22nd century, lucid and able.
This blows my mind, because it never occurred to me that this would actually be taught differently. But yes, afaik, in NA we're taught that North and South America are two separate continents. In Canada however, Americans are from the USA, but we don't generally refer to the USA as America. Only they do that. We refer to the middle nation in NA as The U.S.

It's hard to recall what I was taught about Central America, but I believe it was that it's sort of a region shared between both and only a colloquially separate entity.

>To me, it's trustless money. I don't need to trust the US gov, I don't care about who they will elect or which wars they are gonna start or which banks they are gonna bailout.

If there is nothing to spend your Bitcoin it's worthless. If there is no US economy that is begging to exchange "worthless" dollars to Bitcoin then your Bitcoin will not amount to much. Really, when people are betting on Bitcoin or gold they assume that in the future there will be a bigger pie and thanks to their ownership stake in Bitcoin or gold they receive the same percetage portion of the bigger pie. If the pie shrinks because of a war then guess what? Your Bitcoin will be just as worthless as the dollar.
I wouldn't call being against fraud "having an agenda" as much as "being a decent human being".
The ideal workflow for that would be keeping open, until dismissed, a noise reduction GUI widget (like the ribbon in Microsoft Office or the side panels in Blender), guaranteeing that you only dig through the menu once per session; then selecting audio (or using an existing audio selection) and stating that it is the source or the noise reference; then apply and undo noise reduction after seeing that both mandatory inputs have been set.

Not rocket surgery, but a very deep UI redesign compared to a dialog box.
> Deplatforming is censorship because, if done actively and exceptionally (i.e. discriminatorially and out of the ordinary routine) then it is the attempt to prevent the speaker from speaking and anyone wishing to listeners being able to listen.

No, it's not. It's refusing to actively participate in the speakers speech. It is distinct from either preventing them from speaking, or preventing interested parties from listening. The freedom of speech is, as conservatives are fond of pointing out, a negative right, not a positive one.

(The use of “discriminatorially” here is pure noise; all choices are, by definition, discrimination.)

> If you are going to conflate them then distributors refusing to distribute the goods of gays or blacks based on them being gay or black, given that they usually distribute goods from non-gays and non-blacks, that is not prejudicial discrimination?

It's certainly race and sexual orientation discrimination, but that's not what we're discussing, and it's an orthogonal issue to freedom of speech. If you want to argue a violation of existing or ideal public accommodation laws protecting against political viewpoint discrimination, that's a very different argument than the free speech argument. In fact, it's an opposed argument, as public accommodation laws (and the concept of freedom from private discrimination on various axes more generally) is in tension with free speech and free association rights, a tension which is at its maximum when the service involved is relaying speech and the basis for denial is the political content of the speech at issue.

The same goes with Pfizer, many people have said the same thing that the second shot was hash on them, one colleague said he had to stay in bed on the second say.

False Rape Accusations are a form of abuse. Rape is also a form of abuse. They are not equivalent, but can certainly lead to the same order of life-destruction magnitude in either case.

Both of these things are relevant in the discussion of consensual sex, and I disagree with your attempt to elevate one position over the other.

Rape is bad because it negates a persons agency over themselves and denies them their basic human rights - false rape accusations also deny a person their basic agency and human rights.

Best way to avoid either case: just don't have sex, i.e. learn the value of abstinence.
When you code all the time for over a decade, you know what good code looks like. When you care about the product, you know what a well implemented feature looks like from the user's perspective. So it's easy to approximate value from these two aspects.

The people who work with me learn a lot about architecture because I explain everything. I only had 1 manager who had a similar style as me in my own career as a developer (out of over a dozen) and I wish I would have had more of them or that I could have worked for them longer.

You're assuming things because you've probably never seen a good manager in your life. It's difficult to imagine something better than the best you've known.
I'm aiming for peer to peer. :)
It's important to learn about it, but being completely obsessed about the issue and view everything from its perspective is counter-productive. It's really an American thing, because many European nations went through similar experiences multiple times.

Deploying to Linux boxen in colocation facilities is the norm and there is little/no culture of using dotNet on Linux. We all know it exists and it's open source now, but most Linux developers don't reach for dotNet.
As someone who's used a Mac for work while juggling a variety of other systems on my personal devices, my biggest complaint is actually the constant need to realign muscle memory for basic keyboard operations.

Sure, I could find something that would give me more familiar bindings at the system level, but I'd then also have to (hope that it's even possible to) also deal with all of the downstream apps that then have to use different ones, because the globals in macOS have superseded whatever they'd be using on other systems.

It's like dealing with English grammar. Swap Cmd for Ctrl and Ctrl(?) for Alt, except when you're switching tabs or windows and it's the exact opposite, or when whatever operation you need is bound to Option for some reason.
Isn't Bitcoin almost impossible to outlaw by design?
Sure, but when you are considering it theologically (and not historically) you are asking about what theologians/the church teaches and understands, and the internal logic of the bible and church teaching, not what the “actual” truth of the story is (an interesting question but a different area of inquiry).

As a Christian I’m happy for it to be both a fable in the sense you describe and true in a theological sense (some Christians would disagree with my position of course).

This is the correct answer. The number of hours you can be productive is limited. Frontload your hobbies before work. Interestingly enough you won't underperform at work as much as you would think.

For me it used to be work 100%, hobbies 0-10%. By frontloading my hobbies and doing them first, it's now work 90%, hobbies 90%. A good net gain. At the same time my happiness has increased by a good 20%, because as you know, no one feels great watching TV for 3 hours.

The reason why this works is, if you work like a semi-normal human even if you are tired you will do the thing. However hobbies, being "optional" you will skip. By flipping things around you still have that push to perform well at work, so it stays relatively the same.

By the way, with kids, frontloading becomes even more important.

Edit: I try to have 5 main todos every day. 1 work, 4 hobbies. It averages out to about 11 hours (work being 8). I use my "hour" of lunch to play guitar, which is another hobby of mine, but it's the only time I can squeeze it in.

Focalboard team here.

Hi @riho, thanks for your feedback. One key piece of feedback we've heard is that other SaaS-based project management tools can run slow.

Because of this, one concept we're testing out is "Focalboard Personal Desktop" where you can run the software locally.

You can download the v0.6 version from the Windows Store or Apple AppStore to try it out. We would love your feedback.

Also, if you're interested in influencing the project, please consider submitting a ticket with type `enhancement` with what you'd like to see: https://github.com/mattermost/focalboard/issues

Portfolio Website Using Python/Flask vs. JavaScript/React?
I'm eventually looking to transition into the software development field, specifically the VR field. Right now, I "know" C++ and Python. I'd like to write my own website just with a few pages such as:

- about me (contact info/interests/etc)

- skills learnt from each project

- my hosted resume (PDF)

I'd also ideally like to have a blog.

Given my goals, does it make sense to just use Flask? I don't really care to learn JavaScript any time soon given how many other aspects of software development I need to learn. Would employers really care if I was unfamiliar with JS, HTML, CSS other than the absolute basics?

Any feedback welcome :)

Five Facts About Insta Hard
To make sense I might want to reduce the many levels of performance by three stages to make it easier for you to see how this male enhancement recipe will help you deliver a great show in bed? At the moment the main thing you should see here is the importance of male chemicals or essential testosterone because this is the sacred purpose of helping, energy at vital and helpful levels in giving the male genitals a few skills for example to create sperm, increase sexual desire and so on when our body begins to lose these sexual problems and date. This enhancement therefore ensures that testosterone remains strong to aid sexual purposes in the body.

Came here to say more-or-less this.

We now define consent as something so etheral (probably rightly so) that it's virtually impossible to prove it was granted (clearly, "leave me alone" remains unambiguous). People can change their mind but feel coerced to continue, or grant consent to something different than what ends up happening. Court cases thus go down the "he said, she said" route.

I don't really know how to get out of that.

The flipside is that, indeed, because genuine accusations are so thin on physical proof, it is so hard to separate them from fake ones. Whenever I hear someone publicly shamed for sexual misconduct and the wrath of public opinion descends on them, a part of me shudders at the thought of that happening to an innocent person, with no defense available.
To submitter (ingve): In the title, "this" is a C++ keyword that shouldn't have been capitalized to "This".

I also agree with sibling comment that an alternative title such "Deducing this (A C++ syntax proposal)" would save a click for many readers who aren't interested in C++.

Is that really true? I had no trouble writing UTF8 documents using regular TrueType-fonts in LaTeX almost two decades ago and with no problems with output quality.

I agree with all points - giving blanket consent up front misses the point entirely. But I've been thinking if it's possible to flip the idea on its head: Make a kind of "sex partner review escrow service". What if instead of granting consent, the app allowed you to designate a person that is allowed to 'review' you. Basically saying "I give this person the right to call me out as a sexual predator" and get the same in return. That way it'll be what they think about the encounter afterward that matters.

Reviews aren't perfect, and they won't catch someone mostly well-behaved who only occasionally sexually assaults [1]. But as it is, there are serial-perpetrators out there who get away with it, because there's no 'background check' for dating, and the only remedy is if a community around a known predator keeps trying to warn each new girl he tries to get with - which is indistinguishable from slander, and can just as well be used to ruin someone's life based on a single lie. So maybe an app could actually help with that? Make an 'official' paper trail so your sexual behavior, good or bad, is on the record. The technology could enforce various things - e.g. the review could be 'locked in' after a couple days, so you can't change it weeks later due to a bad breakup (it wouldn't even need to be published or sent to a server, a cryptographic hash would be all it takes to make it possible to verify later that the review wasn't tampered with). And by only allowing 'authorized' reviews, you avoid the possibility of brigading.

Using technology to deal with a sensitive issue, and sensitive data like this isn't easy - and doing so would require a very careful design about what is visible to whom under which circumstances (not unlike the recent contact tracing systems in iOS and Android). But I feel like a legal grey-zone like this, where the courts continuously fail to help women that have been raped, that calls for more creative solutions, even if they don't solve the problem completely. With a consent app, each person 'signs away' their right to call the other person out, but with an app like this, the opposite is true, you give weight to the other person's voice, and I think that's worth exploring.

I fully agree that the best universities don't have the exclusivity on the best output, but the classification of what is considered "best" should be based on the average quality of the output.

Also recruiting in universities is an effort that does not scale, I did that for about 5 years and it was not possible to reach all the universities in my country, so I had to limit myself to the universities in the top 3-4 cities that I could reach. Yes, I left out some that may have some good candidates, but this is a limitation of resources and not an intentional exclusion "I don't go to X because I don't like them". In the old days companies were not putting announcements to hire in every newspaper in every small city across the country, but only in key places to maximize output per cost.
Breaks do not count towards working hours in Germany at least [0]. You may be confusing a week of e.g. 38 paid hours plus a few hours of unpaid breaks with a "40 hour work week"?

Romanian adopted the Latin alphabet in the 19th century and the spelling was intentionally based on Italian. So it's not a good representative for this particular argument — of course it spells it this way, because it was intentionally chosen to spell it this way by importing Italian spelling rules for these sounds.
