Wow from 1992. The three more that cited it were each from "The Journal of Alternative Medicine and choice Buzz Words," but one was from a more respectable journal testing the effects of spiritual healing on cancer cell lines in 2005. In short, not significantly different from the control.

See the Olson Timezone database[1] as another example of "simple patterns" that are very much copyrightable.

The act of curating a collection of what may be "simple facts" creates a copyrightable work.

A farmer's almanac of seasons and weather patterns is copyrightable, even though the bare facts that it tabulates are not.

I have to deal with the police on an almost daily basis in the last couple years. They've gotten infinitely worse… they're unnecessarily aggressive, confrontational, and unreasonable.

In fact they even sell insurance for this, and companies that want you to use their software can offer indemnity protection with the same effect.

No it's not. The 2020 election was very clearly not rigged. The Trump campaign had every opportunity to bring evidence out that something was wrong in courts, and they didn't.

The Capital Riot wasn't about people with legitimate doubts who weren't being heard, they were people who's doubts were heard, and then dismissed because they didn't have any real evidence and because their claims were clearly wrong.

I'll try to come back later and share more details here for anyone who is curious, but you can also reach out and ask even if you aren't the OP too!

I recently received a camellia sinensis (tea plant) from a nursery that was root bound. That wasn't much of an issue. The problem I has was the nursery was required to drench the soil in bifentrhin pesticide. First thing out of the box is a warning to wear gloves and keep kids and animals away from the root zone. No thank you. I have been cultivating an environment for the critters in my yard. I regularly have frogs, toads, birds and occasional deer and bear in my yard. No pesticides allowed! In this case I did wash the roots and repotted in my home soil mix.

Bare root plants do sometimes have issues getting started but I will only be ordering seed or bare root from now on.
Tbh I've had a couple tablets and never used them much for anything. The niche between bigger than a phone but smaller than a laptop isn't one that I have many uses for.

But, assuming you use a tablet for something, I can definitely see the appeal of having a terminal on it. A lot of my time on ssh is spent occasionally checking on or configuring stuff, with lots of down time in between. So if you're reading on your tablet, it would be nice to quickly check whether your job completed or whatever.
"Sounds to me like those legitimate criticisms are exactly what the "insane Weaver residents" are complaining about."

Really, the white dude who complained to the cops to do something about the black and latino car club because they are "scary" is just genuinely concerned about law and order and the imperative that all minor violations of local codes must always be enforced?

Color me skeptical.

Calling the cops on scary black people for minor infractions of ticky-tack laws is how Eric Garner and many others have ended up killed at the hands of law enforcement.

How is this in any way equivalent? Being jewish or black are not disabilities. Downs syndrome is a horrible condition that greatly impacts your quality of life.

I personally think abortion is horrible, but aborting babies who are going to enter life with awful disabilities is the least objectionable form of abortion there is.

You should be outraged at the millions of perfectly healthy babies that are aborted every year just for convenience. Not this.

I mostly agree with you, every country employs some mix of different economic systems.

I agree communism is impossible, that's why I think no true scotsman is an invalid criticism. My post was largely an attempt to explain why I think it's impossible and also actually undesirable. That's all just semantics though, I think we agree on the actual issue.

I disagree with your last paragraph. I oppose socialism as an ideology, as it is pursued by dyed in the wool socialists, but don't necessarily oppose all policies implemented in the name of socialism. I oppose ideologies generally, politically I support policies that have turned out to work, whatever the reasons might be.

For example I do believe in the power of free markets and that capitalism is essentially based on individual liberty. However for example here in the UK we have a very effective and beloved national health service. It's not perfect and might not be the system I would choose from scratch, with unlimited power to make it as I wished, but it works and I would oppose any attempts to radically reform it. There's just too much that's good about it that we could break. Maggie, one of my political heroes, tried to reform it along market lines in the 80s and it was disastrous.

But then there are historical reasons why Britain has some of it's economic and political settlements. Social consensus is important and what works for us might not work for others with different traditions, institutions and expectations.
Not at the moment, no. I recall reading it on another reddit and being sufficiently convinced, for what that is worth.

The mod of those subs is /u/IrlOurPresident, and the submissions are restricted to pretty much only that account. That is where to start to trace down the claim.
I have come to the conclusion that there is no real way to discuss The Donald in a politically neutral way so I think it is best left out of the conversation for the moment. There are plenty of less politically charged examples of Reddit's moderation or the lack thereof.
It certainly has a more bigoted feel.

According to the r/UKpolitics moderator that got banned, one of their comments was manually edited multiple times (first to change the content of the comment, then to fix typos in previous edits)[1]. Reddit hasn't refuted this.

From context I've seen elsewhere, my guess is that the mod posted the text of the Spectator article in its entirely as a comment on their submission. Then, someone edited out the sentence which contained a passing mention of Aimee, but in a nongrammatical way. Then someone went back to fix the edit, and a little while later the comment was full-on deleted (so now it shows up as [ Removed By Reddit ]) [2]

>Your phrasing "chose to have kids" betrays some of your underlying beliefs

I did suspect that underlying your opinion was a desire to discriminate in favor of parents/against non parents.

This would fit in with the double standard I highlighted in my first comment.

This was also because you mentioned "parents" in the context of diversity (which is weirdly unique). I threw that phrase out there to see if it triggered you.

Really intrigued by the idea and anxious to try it out! After connecting my Gmail I can only get a white screen. How do I report the bug to y'all?

Best of luck, many commenters on HN seem to really undervalue the "it just works" aspect of things. It looks nice, seems to do something I am really anxious for help with, and not much more. I can see myself paying for this (potentially :) - need to get it working first!).

One perhaps funny anecdote for you - I am recently an engineer-turned-manager and this type of unified task/meeting management is one of the growth areas I've had to focus on most over the last year. Thought I'd let you in on a potential niche^2 market that might be a good fit for a blog post or something similar down the road.
I think the point of the article is "It's illegal but we've been ignoring it, and we shouldn't have to change that just because outsiders moved in."
Those are inextricably locked up with race in America, you aren't paying attention to statistics if you don't think there's correlation. Sure there are poor whites. but your chance of being poor and white is much lower than if you're black or latino. A huge portion of it does depend on who currently holds wealth and that is extremely weighted towards white people. The bootstrapping methodology/theory only gets you so far. Sure some people manage to break through the glass ceiling. I managed to break away from being "poor white trash" for example. I was also quite gifted in math/science and had uneducated but stable, caring parents. Lots of people in my community grew up in pure chaos and drugs and didn't stand a chance and fell right into the same destructive patterns. Sure there's the whole 99% vs 1% but race can't be swept under the rug while you're far more likely to die by cop if you're a POC rather than white. We can be activists for both types of change.
It's 2021. There is no reason cars should be able to speed at all if every gimmick drone from Amazon can refuse to fly into protected airspace. Half of HN is expecting that by 2025 they will sell their car and permanently ride on some Waymo taxi; are they going to reach over the separator and push down on the gas pedal, if one exists anymore? No, nobody will give a fuck that the thing is doing 20mph in a 20mph zone. We can have that today even we can't have the autonomous driving part.

I find that whole thing a bit odd considering the "award spam" only got as extreme as it's now when Reddit started handing out temporary free awards to users for them to give away in addition to the occasional gold coins.

Case in point: I never spend money on Reddit yet I have given out a whole bunch of awards.

Organizing this with a bunch of alt accounts should make it trivial to just hand out mass-awards for free.
Yeah like how Firefox got rid of XUL extensions in version 57.
> Does reddit have any audit trail or safeguards when admins edit comments?

No, and despite being told multiple times over the years they have not made any attempt to develop anything like this, despite it being an obvious step to prevent admins from controlling group think on the site.

My theory is that the company is worried that if they start letting people see under the covers that all the users will realize how much the site is used to manipulate them... deletions of "wrong think", bot posts, etc.
Let me rephrase that. Do you support the ordinances in question? If so, why?

I thought this too for a while but ... one small subreddit I read is "DermatologyQuestions". Here is the top post of this month: https://www.reddit.com/r/DermatologyQuestions/comments/m9ndf... And to get a better perspective - read the comments too.

Maybe there are some more niche more secluded "better" subreddits. But as far as unpopular goes DermatogoyQuestions is pretty niche, and is oriented towards doctors and patients. And yet the worst parts of reddit still get here, and are upvoted straight to the top.

Not sure on any ownership stake by the CCP, but it does seem that U.S. social media companies in general have zero loyalty to the U.S., its people, or the principles that the U.S. was founded on and stands for.

Other than name-calling, you contributes zero to the discussion. Please refrain from lowering the signal/noise ratio.
>By convention comments are ignored, but the truth is they're not by the programmer.

Disagree. It's more like the opposite is mostly true:

By convention comments are not meant to be ignored, but the truth is they mostly are, by the average programmer. And most programmers are average, by definition of the word 'average' and by the bell curve law. Yes, with exceptions.

Even if comments are not ignored in normal work, just wait for the next crunch to hit (which is mostly the default state or mode in many companies, anyway), and then see the fun. Every dev scrambling to hack the code any which way to meet the deadline / target / ship date, and now maintaining comments is a goal that flies out of the window. Been there, seen that, plenty, though also worked in places where that was not the case. Those are few in number, though.

There can be other issues too, with compiler directives as comments. What if the directive-as-comment is itself now commented out, maybe as part of commenting out a larger surrounding block of code?

Now you (and the compiler writer) have two problems :)
