I also have a similar need but for upvoted content. Sometimes I keep scrolling through pages of upvotes to find a specific item. The problem is that favourites and upvotes are not exposed via the API and require scraping, otherwise it would be easier to build a search tool for them.
You may enjoy looking up micro-tones. Where western scales are made up of whole-tones and semi-tones, other cultures don't necessarily use the 12 semi-tone based scale system. Notably, Toxic by Britany Spears samples some Bollywood music, where the backing singing uses a bit of micro-tonality. You can often find different satisfying intervals, although they won't necessarily have the same cultural context/baggage associated with the sounds and therefore won't convey the same strong connotations that a diminished chord might.
I think it's generally "the submitter shouldn't be able to shape the discussion too much". I.e. also why you aren't supposed to put your own spin on a headline, text submissions are separate and not supposed to be used for links (with a few exceptions).
I believe that explicit banning is also now indicated. I'd requested something like this for long-since-shadowbanned users whose ban event was hidden in the distant mists of time (or who are sockpuppets of banned profiles). This is rare, but does occur.

Also can apply to spammers -- this is usually relevant on submissions / new queue.

The YC-company bias can also apply to negative reporting on YC companies, which is less moderated as something of a counter to charges of favouratism. See:

My small town has turned down apartment buildings for reasons like 'preserving the character of a run down building built after 1970' and 'not wanting to have apartments near a planned business hotel'.

The people opposing the projects absolutely don't want them built. For the one, there was also a discussion of having more poor people in the area that is a few hundred feet from the poorest census block in the county.
I live in a hundred year old SRO in a blighted downtown area. It's how I got back into housing after years of homelessness.

I wanted to be an urban planner before life got in the way, so I see all the things wrong in my downtown and have some idea of what broke and why.

So one of my online projects is a website called Project: SRO trying to put together info about where things went wrong and how we could course correct.

Super glad to see that OP posted the code! :)

We as a community also need to do a better job of embracing unpolished projects and emphasizing a “don’t be bashful” approach. I’ve seen far too many hobbiest projects posted here where the comments have nitpicked them apart in a derogatory, non-constructive way.

Yes, definitely. The salt just means you have to compute a few hashes yourself rather than relying on a lookup table.
With this or a PiDP-8, I've idly thought about learning enough to write a "terminal operating system" so one could plug it into a USB port and get a shell to a Linux or BSD system. That way it could be of actual use to the owner after playing with older operating systems loses its allure.
Yeah -- I assumed that a random hex password was chosen, and that the attacker does a brute force hex search (e.g. JtR with Incremental:LowerNum). Granted, in practice the attacker usually doesn't know the exact format, so they might waste additional time searching other formats.

I agree about incorporating other characters. As long as it's not "Dictionaryword1!" :) https://youtu.be/aHaBH4LqGsI
Check out the context from TFA: this is a help message prescribing a change you could make (inserting a &). The signature is different because it's prescribing a different signature to fix the issue.
I'm not sure why being a designer is necessary to criticize UX, unless it's UX intended for designers.

If I mint 50,000,000,000 OhSighCoins, give away all but one for free("Airdrop"), and trade one for $1, that is not really a good indication that there are $50B in OhSighCoins circulating.

This isn't the only place where this happens in urbanism, of course.

One such issue is busses. People with a choice will gladly ride trains and streetcars, but busses are stigmatized.

It turns out that if you design a bus line a certain way, busses are every bit as good a transportation system as light rail up to a pretty high throughput, and often cheaper (always cheaper upfront). But even places with really good Bus Rapid Transit lines, folks don't want to get on a bus to get them where they're going faster.

This is HN, I suspect many of us have taken company busses. I've known tons of people making over 500k/yr who took a bus to work in the US. And that was a bus that gets stuck in traffic! People not wanting to take a bus is not fundamental to the mode, it's a perception thing.

In much of the world, there's no stigma, and everyone will gladly take a bus if that's the best way to get where they're going.
Thanks for sharing the code mate. May i also suggest adding a token/password if you want to reduce attack surface. Also from a quick glance, this looks like it is vulnerable to ssrf style attack. This type of service is often vulnerable to it given the nature of it is fetching url on user's behalf. I would suggest either isolate it, have a whitelist of domains that you trust or having iptables to deny internal access.

Nice work regardless!

Greyed out comments leads to serious downvoting bandwagoning too.
Also been there, however mine was me answering my own question. Several years later I helped myself out again with it.
Yes... there are lists that are generally used for common variants of passphrases and can generally crack a simple passphrase like ggp in less than a day easily, faster or slower depending on hardware in use, concurrency and order.

4-5 dictionary words with proper sentence structure is a lot safer for the most part. Random safer still, but much harder to remember... my current password for work in a sentence with 24 characters. spaces, capitals and punctuation. Other than my OS and password manager, I really don't remember any other passwords I use, and the majority are random generated at this point.

I also use a wildcard mail forwarder, so most new sites I've used in the past year or two are all unique emails as well.
I really like the former article method over the gravatar identicon because the circular shape is not going to end up with „accidental swastikas“
For the same reasons being a coder isn't necessary to criticize code. Anybody can do it, but chances are your opinions are a lot less informed than you realize.
from the article:

> People occasionally conflate these shell-company reverse mergers with the current boom in special purpose acquisition companies, but they are really very different. A SPAC goes public and raises money specifically for the purpose of taking a private company public; it sells shares to the public and then has a public vote with a lot of disclosure to complete its merger. A reverse merger generally involves a public shell of a more or less defunct operating company (or at least one that pretended to have operations); the shell will be fairly closely held by a few insiders, and there will be no real money inside it. It is not a high-profile way to go public and raise money, the way a SPAC is; it’s a low-profile way to sneak into the public markets.
I agree that Levine's writing is way funnier than "financial newsletter" would lead you to believe, but I actually unsubscribed this week after trying it for a couple of months. Problem was, I'd just read the whole week's newsletters every Saturday morning, and I always came away kind of depressed at how how much energy people devote to venality.

Fix “Unexpected Field” Error from Multer
As a company grows, all sorts of new problems open up that your current employees might not be a great fit for. For example, you might not need a DBA when just starting out, but when your database reaches a certain size it might make sense to hire one. Or you might need to hire a middle manager once you reach a certain size - but all of your initial hires prefer individual contributor roles. Or maybe you need someone with a strong background in security to be able to pass an audit.

It doesn't mean that you hired the wrong people. Just that your needs are changing.
If you want the good one, the title should just be Star Wars. The episode number and subtitle were added later; at that point who cares who provided the blue milk.
It is internal joke, you 'forgot' your password, so you get something like 'Spring2021' from IT as password reset. Now you pick a target account, trigger account lockout. Most of the time, the target is confused and gets a combo, account unlock and password reset. Now the IT guy who does password reset ... uses seasonal passwords which of course can't be changed for 24 hours.
Lip reading ASL is pretty tough
I thought that the infamous Dropbox comment on HN was the outlier, but when I saw Daniel Gross' tweet about Brian Armstrong's early projects (https://twitter.com/danielgross/status/1382348690606616581), I did some more digging and found that the non-linear story was pretty consistent. Most "successful" founders today, felt just as lost as the rest of us.

BTW, my process for finding them was pretty simple:

1. Started with top YC startups

2. Hunted down their HN launches (first instance of the URL)

3. Browsed the founder's posting history

I'm sure there are many other examples of this.
I’ve already mastered the last step.
Notes that ships with iOS actually has a nice document scanner built in that uses the phone camera ... I mean it does the transform you describe to get better-than-normal document photos.

I've been around for the same amount of time so that's not the cause of the difference in our opinions. What might be is that I'm not talking about general availability of information, but news specifically. To me, news quality seems to have plummeted roughly at the same time as the rise of targeted ad industry, which is also the time news sources became "free" (as in the reader not paying any money for it).
No. If anything, they are going to be more irrational. The incentives for most advisers are horrible.

Ymmv, if you have a good adviser then great. But I used to work in this area, and even in my first real job (not my first job in the industry though) the level of ignorance was brutally obvious.

For example, my first employer was a single adviser firm that just got acquired for $5m...this guy didn't know how to use Excel, he didn't know how to build a financial forecast, he didn't understand that life expectancy at birth was different to expectancy at retirement, he didn't understand basic elements of finance (for example, why you can't make money buying a stock and selling after they pay a dividend), he didn't understand how to compute returns, and falsified those numbers in marketing when they showed bad performance...and this is a guy who has hundreds of clients, and $100m+ in assets. However bad you think it is, it is much much worse.

Most of the people on here will do better if they apply a little time, and understand that human reasoning is flawed (i.e. don't get swept in the hot new thing). That is all that is required.
Are you writing about this specialty grocery shop anywhere? I'd really like to read an account of the process of opening and operating something like that.
How about using the variants as well so the avatars also structurally look different from each other (and adding even more variants)?
I do not know what the other poster had in mind.

While fusion does not end at iron 56 (whose nucleus has the lowest mass per nucleon), the quantities of heavier nuclei produced by fusion decrease very steeply with increasing atomic mass, becoming low beyond the isotopes of nickel, very low beyond the isotopes of zinc and negligible beyond the isotopes of germanium.

The elements heavier than zinc are produced mostly or completely by other kinds of reactions, e.g. neutron capture.
> My question is: Do you really need to ask that?

Yes, you really need to ask that. When accusing someone of misconduct you really do need to ask if it is really happening and not just hand wave about human nature and make judgements based on untested assumptions. You really really can’t just go along with whatever fits your biases.
If paid placements had to be declared, strangely this might not turn out so badly.

"Ah, time to sit down for a relaxing film this evening. Shall we watch the romantic comedy where Coca-Cola paid $20,000 to place a can of Fanta in a sex scene -- everyone's talking about it -- or perhaps this independent science fiction film; it's a new director, no product placement?"
So many recommendations, but no Trigun yet. Starts off very silly, but goes to some good places over its single season run. At least, I sure felt it did when I was 13.

It's a western/sci-fi set in a vast desert-dwelling society, focusing on the legend of the mysterious criminal Vash, with a 60 billion dollar bounty on his head, usually called by the nickname "Vash The Stampede", who wreaks destruction and mayhem wherever he turns up.

We follow around a goof who looks just like him.

And second, I find it very hard to believe that backups don't exist, especially so in circumstances such as this case. (Even Blind Freddy would know that failing to do backups in these circumstances would ultimately have major consequences for Google—either from legal action brought on by aggrieved users and or legislative changes that will result in negative outcomes for Google.)

It likely doesn't really add much security. Anyone capable of running processes on the chip hosting the SGX enclave can probably run a side-channel attack to recover the necessary keys. I was very disappointed that Signal took that approach.

Welcome to the N.H.K is an interesting exploration of the hikimori phenomena.

Mushishi is a bit "standard anime fare" but I found it surprisingly wholesome and emotional.

Samurai Champloo is a very well drawn, animated, and stylish show with an amazing soundtrack by nujabes.

Fullmetal Panic! is very mecha shonen, but probably my favorite of the genre without having to delve into the more massive franchises like Gundam with it's bazillion different shows.

Also: Check out Satoshi Kon's stuff like Perfect Blue or Paprika.
Although I just use git (with symlinks from ~/.dotfiles to wherever the software is actually expecting the config), most people I know use https://yadm.io instead.
Where would you look it up? Big Media and Big Tech are always lying, man.
I also enjoyed Ergo Proxy, Texhnolyze and Planetes. Ghost in the Shell is still the only movie I revisit every now and then (out of all movies ever). They are all slow, I want to take the time to watch them again some day.

Very different but I also enjoyed Naruto as I grew up myself. It's long (but you can skip all fillers) but sometimes very deep. I enjoyed Kenshin but never finished it.

As mentioned below Samurai Champloo is also nice and Steins Gate (nice, strange atmosphere) and Death Note: very psychological: He thinks that I think that he thinks and I'm smarter so... Love that. And One Punch Man, puts a smile on my face.

If you want weird: FLCL. What was that about?
Yeah bit of a disappointment...

Especially given that even the paragraphs following that sentence are essentially "well maybe it's X Y or Z because people there have mustaches".

I'm sure answering this question scientifically is hard but I'd love to know something like what happens if you get N native speakers from K languages and take a sentence and a paragraph from each language and ask the N native speakers what they see (and compare the results).
I've been around long enough to have had to roll my eyes and say "fine, octet" in conversation.

I've asked dev shops to feed me work with no standup or meetings, just send the spec and answer my questions. Nobody will take the offer, even if I am willing to do 2 guys work for half a guy's pay. I have no way to explain this, but it seems like standup meetings are more important than anything to most employers. Best of luck, please post your results if you actually get work that wants output and not hangout time.
> My regular shoes have round laces,

I don't know why anybody makes round laces, especially out of a material that slips.

I have a pair of dress shoes that came with round laces. Even with a "correct" knot, even with double-knotting, they always came undone. I replaced the laces with standard flat laces. They might not look as good, but they look better than having to re-tie them every 30 minutes.

I saw this bug.

Security risk or not. Changing your password on the idrac and it not being what's expected and having to jump into a DC to change 30+ host iDRACs was not ideal.

All because I couldn't find the bug at the time, I read it a few weeks later only after over a week of back breaking basic sys admin work.

Small bonus. It built my use case for fucking off more on premise infrastructure into the cloud.
I've been finding Signal Music Studio[1] to be doing a good job of conveying theory with minimal notation and practical examples. E.g. less labeling of things and more "here's what folks like to use this construct for". Not quite a book, and maybe not as comprehensive as you're hoping.

It’s not just you. Python seems to suffer from Python-specific ”tutorial sites” being SEO’d above Python’s official docs. I don’t know what it is about the Python documentation that lowers its rank on Google search results. In general, not a big fan of Python docs.
I'm not great at this either, but have been getting better by --

* I have a separate virtual desktop with only my note taking tool (always open). Copy/paste or use a plug-in to feed anything interesting to note taking app / tag it. I use Roam Research (allows bidirectional linking, but you can use anything).

* I often use the "5 whys" technique as a BS detector as I manage my team. I do that with myself too lately and find it quickly tells me when my understanding bottoms out (often by the third "why")

* I have been using a voice memo app to talk to myself when outside. I form narratives better when I speak (out loud) and retain information much better than when I write (though writing is better than nothing or "saying it in your head")
It's sometimes hard to tell the difference between a bribe and extortion.

The case in Australia was definitely the latter and based on the quality of NYT reporting on these issues I wouldn't be surprised if it's the case here too.
Scary! I'm still 8-10 yrs from retirement but most of my funds are in target-retirement-date type funds with lower risk. This latest round of news stories and conversations like this motivate me to look at what actual stocks I own. I can totally relate to the irrational exuberance - I look at how well my investments have done through the pandemic and expect things to get "even better when the economy wakes up again" but that could be totally wrong.
