No, the point is not about 'not offending' a 'sensitive' group. It's about not spreading lies about that group.

Obviously you should listen to Greg and not me, but in many ways you can summarise it as "are the changes correct and do they work?". That they don't amount to end-user useful support is a very separate matter. What's the benefit of delaying submission of correct and working branches?
I always hate reading this kind of news, because it severely undermines our ability to scold and punish others for dropping their trash into the oceans.

We should clean this up ASAP, if nothing else, then just to regain moral superiority. I'm sure that broken window theory also applies to dirty water. But I don't want my kids to inherit polluted drinking water.

Oh dear. Not this drivel again! When will it die?

I would have expected the HN crew to be able to spot the obvious shortcomings of W3W a mile off. Even if much of the supposedly tech savvy media seems to think this idiocy is genius and continues to blow smoke up their arse.

The only impressive thing about W3W is the indefatigability of their relentless PR department.

I still need to check for API or export availability for my banks but I was thinking about integrating my bank statements into my "personal graph" system (inspired by Microsoft Graph) to keep track of spending and visualize transactions in my timeline along with all other data sources (music scrobbles, locations, etc)
Can we have a source here?
> "Hey Jodie, my partner and I are marching in a Gay pride parade this weekend, wanna come?" (Is that political at Basecamp?)

How about Jodie says, "No thanks"

"Aw, why not?"

"Not really my thing"

"What, do you have a problem with gay people?"

I mean I see that as likely as any outcome from that conversation starter.
The usual best way to get in touch with dang (or another mod) is to email hn@ycombinator.com. Likely to get a better answer via email, or perhaps he'll comment here if you call attention to it that way.

If something like this really happened, this is pretty disturbing. The _pecl account that now owns that comment was created on the same day the comment was posted, has 1 karma, and has not posted anything else.

Edit: just emailed hn@; hopefully someone there will follow up on this.
Oooh, this is relevant to my interests! Some banks do have APIs -- U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, and Chase are a couple that spring to mind off the top of my head -- but in general they are not really aimed at developers building for specific consumer use cases, which kind of makes sense, since most people don't want to build, say, a budgeting app that only works with their own bank. A more typical customer of these APIs is fintech platform companies like Plaid that will work as a middle layer and make this data accessible via a more standardized API. (Full disclosure: I work at Plaid. We also have our own open API standard, Plaid Exchange, but obviously not every bank is using it.)

Anyway, to answer the question, since it would be something just for my own bank it would be a service that I would use for myself, rather than something that would be a business. So, this is small, but a few months ago I was trying to find a good way to split the rent with my boyfriend, and even though it seems completely bonkers, in the year of our lord 2021 I still cannot find a service that will allow me to make free, recurring, peer-to-peer electronic payments. (My bank offers free peer-to-peer electronic payments with Zelle but doesn't provide recurring functionality; and they offer free recurring bill payments to individuals but only via check, not electronically.) So I might build that.
Sometimes, some service you want or need is not in the cloud you are in. So you start to move some workload closer to whatever you need to use.. And, surprise, surprise. You just moved multi cloud.
Your hyperbole will not fly well here. Generally speaking the rationale behind masks is heavily flawed and there is yet to be a study to prove that masks help in a pandemic.

They sure work for limited amounts of time in specific use-cases, especially with training and when you can wash your hands before putting them on.

Day-to-day for longer durations at a time they seem detrimental actually, due to the fact that you have to touch your face more often (especially with glasses), wear them for too long and reuse them often.
You're living in a beautiful bubble.
> We should be approaching this scientifically and sharing this information to institutions worldwide.

Yes, we should. The entire patent system needs to be removed and replaced.

The issue comes down to widescale manufacturing, and ensuring that they can be made safely and in controlled environments. This vaccine should 100% be made public, from the carrier methods, to the specific genome (something that has already been released).

But here is where I have a moral quandary, if a newcomer (money hungry, greedy) manufacturing group decided to start producing the vaccine, and due to poor management, poor material choices, Q/A issues, &c began running afoul and they decided to either distort the truth and continue to outright sell the vaccine, or to offload to other places with lesser safeguards especially in smaller or 'third-world countries'— a term I despise. Then that would both harm the overall image of the vaccine, would harm the general trust, and would potentially set back entire populations by decades.

With the patent comes responsibility, and the ability to safeguard what your research can be ascribed to.

I agree that the research should be released, should be used, and eventually should become free for all (on the cusp or direct outset of this plague) ala Jonas Salk[1].

> What if another country like China developed the vaccine first

If a government is the main developers of a vaccine, then yes it should be free and open from the offset. But, if you remove the capabilities from business' to own their works you destroy nearly all initial incentives that they have to take risks on novel techniques or overall manufacturing. Is that the right mindset to have? Not at all. That's a horribly depressing mindset, but it's sadly the truth for almost all investor groups and boards around the world.

As said, this is a moral quandary. I wish for a fully scientific economy and culture, but to work within the confines of modern day greed this is sadly likely the only approach. I hope to be proven wrong, and I hope governments around the world step in and force corporations to give up their patents for the betterment of the world.

[1]. although he didn't patent for altruistic reasons as most believe, at the time he wouldn't have been eligible to patent due to the vaccine not being 'novel enough' as his lawyers put it.
Markdown is more human-readable, easier to type, and more concise. Its lack of flexibility is an important feature, too (no JS, no styles, and only one way to make text bold).
Thankfully BMW doesn't own the roads.

They do this in LA already, you can choose to be toll'd more (wireless tolls) or you can stay in the normal lanes. I'm much more ok with the regional infrastructure charging it because you have at least a chance at knowing where the money goes.

The car manufacturers would love to have some sort of residual billing for crap like that I'm sure tho.
Strictly speaking, covid is not apples fault of course. However, as a long time apple user, I was always against forcing me to move from fingerprint to face ID. And my next iPhone will be an SE for exactly that reason. So I cant resist and feel a bit of "I always knew thats not a good idea". Face ID was a bold move which was punished by, well, lets call it reality.
Fair enough that Greg can’t know whether Aditya is playing a game. But when Greg says “You, and your group” - it’s surely not Greg’s responsibility to untangle the knot at this point. This comes after Aditya had the opportunity to recognize that Dr. Lu and UofM were on Greg’s radar. There was a window of opportunity for working out the details, having some situational awareness, detangling things. Instead, Aditya just hit back, in a personal and to my mind fairly repugnant way. I maintain he should have talked to Dr. Lu at this point because Dr. Lu could have sought a better resolution at this point. Everyone would be better off.

Yeah, Greg seemed angry in response - I think that’s understandable. Should Greg apologize? Sure, why not. But from the skid marks on the road, I’m pretty convinced about who was driving unsafely here.
They are perceived to be very far ahead on vehicle assist and self-driving. I can't say if they actually are technologically speaking, but I think the perception they have will give them a significant benefit for years ahead.

A part of that is the frequent software updates, and even options of updating the hardware. It makes customers feel like their car could get full self-driving eventually, even if it doesn't ship with it now. Maybe it'll never happen, but the effect on sales is real.

I would also prefer Ioniq 5 or Kia EV6. But if I cared about self-driving I would probably get a Tesla. And as the other commented pointed out, their software is generally way better than the competition, and that's really what's making me think twice about getting VW or Skoda, even though I like their new EVs otherwise. I will also make sure to go through reviews on the software and updates of Hyundai and Kias new cars before I buy them. I'm happy with my current Kia Soul EV even though it doesn't get OTA updates. They did upgrade to support CarPlay, which I was really happy with, but that's it. That's fine for a car with such simple software. But for a car with more advanced features like the ones coming out now, it's just not.
Had discussions on this with our close friends who work as doctors at the covid front line (emergency & intense care unit) in Switzerland's biggest hospital (since wife is a doctor herself we know a lot of them).

The feedback? Meh, provably doesn't work in regular doses, +-works in lab culture when dosage is 1000x the regular one with god knows what side effects, and thus no doctor here uses it. Its not some emotional dismissal, but deep study of available research by top medical virology experts in a country which has more money to spend than any other on this, and plenty of this medicine if its proved working. They discuss & evaluate daily all available information, and Ivermectin simply doesn't pass as anything even remotely working.

Now I am far from virology expert myself, but I don't mind listening to massive group of experts. I've seen some people propagating this drug, presumably in good faith. But from the outside it looks exactly like another conspiracy theory when you can't discuss with people about simple facts. All this because of some web page, youtube channel etc going mental in one single direction, about one 'expert' who discovered truth that governments and pharma corporations don't want you to know
I agree. I didn't mention this in my original comment, but the follow-up to the story is: the industry eventually moved on to leaner formats like JSON, but in the process, threw away all that made XML very useful over the years - like schemas, for example. Arguably, this is a step back.
Personally, my issue with EV battery (and electronics!) lifecycles is for precisely the opposite reason - the quarries and landfills in question are far far away from the places where EVs are actually used. All that most people will see is a local reduction in air pollution, so unless the topic is discussed, the general perception will be that all is well.
Heh, same problem as ADHD developer. The one thing that was helping me was a custom in our company that we sit on zoom as much as possible. But, to be honest, I just got back to office as soon as it was possible in my country.
This misses the problem.

At each education level there is a different set of causes that leads to misinformation spread. At low-IQs is resistance to thinking as such; at high-IQs its, typically, marginalization from society and motivated thinking. Across the mid-range its lack of meaning, contentment, emotional stability.

It's not really an education problem. The high-IQs are hyper-critical thinkers; the low-IQs arent ever going to be.

The issue is trust in institutions, as most knowledge is just a function of trust; and secondly, a sense of meaning, inclusion and purpose for many.
> But to others, "politics at work" means "are we paying women and men the same for doing the same job?" and "are our recruiting practices leading to a non-diverse workforce and missing out on great people who should work here?" and "what problems does our company sole, and for whom?". These are really important questions. Why wouldn't you want to bring them up at work?

Because if you have data(like Google had) that women are paid more for same skillset or try to argue that the company is focusing too much on diversity at the expense of talent, do you think it doesn't count as politics. Honest question, I don't have strong opinion in these topics, but I know people who have.

A sample is a point along the band-limited waveform (otherwise you get aliasing). If you treat band-limiting and sampling as a single operation on the original waveform then it's integrating over neighboring points on the waveform with some kind of kernel, the shape of the kernel depends on the form of the band limiting.
It seems like it's ready to go in mailine. Linux doesn't really do "Big-bang" Everything is done releases of new features. Support is added incrementally. Here it says USB, PCIe, IOMMU, NVMe. Haven't been finished. But given those features are spread occross difference subsystems and have different maintainers it'll be easier to work on those once the platform is in Mainline. (You won't be able to expect all the PCIe developers to have the special M1 mac branch ready for testing)
In my understanding the parent talks about having a system run across several clouds at the same time. Thats sounds like madness indeed

On another hand, I agreee whole-heartedly that having cross-clound compatiable application is actually quite sane.
Nothing says "indie" like all your websites apparently needing to be using wikipedia's wiki software I guess? At least that's what is indicated by clicking the getting started. I share the same confusion as the other commenters.
Yeah, perhaps it's easier to understand Tesla's valuation if we look at is as a solar energy company, not just a car company.
Ask HN: Router recommendation to replace Ubiquiti?
I've combed the recent threads and there has been some comment threads where recommendations are made, but thought I'd cast a wider net as I'm sure there are many of us asking the same question.
You're assuming that it takes less than 13 cents / kg to extract that lithium.

Except the language in the contract had always been deceptive, regardless of whether they were legally compelled to remove it. Lambda made a conscious decision to mislead customers for their own financial benefit, knowing full well that they were not covered by Section 523(a)(8).

They don't deserve credit for removing the language.
Onward.

Those children and teenagers are often more knowledgeable on the topic I'm searching for (especially with regards to gaming equipment), so I'm happy to take their opinion like anyone else's.

That said, a paid reddit would be a ghost town. It's against the spirit of the site.
i totally agree, but realistically it will be very difficult and expensive to retrieve an estimated 500.000 barrels from ~3.000 feet depth. most likely there will be years if not decades of discussion who and how this will be cleaned.
I've tried googling for Samuel Rotrosen, but came up with almost nothing. If I had to guess, then someone payed (a lot of) money to scrub this name off the internet. It's pretty creepy, but also impressive what you can do if you're determined.
It’s too bad Android Tv application quality is atrocious. Applications like Hulu have huge swaths of the library that simply won’t play and it crashes. Couple this with a lack of application support and it is quite disappointing. The pled support was the last straw which led me to attach a roku to the television.
As a user of wien.gv.at I want to thank you for your work. It's great to use a website that puts HTML first, rather than a mess of Javascript to render what essentially is just text.
exactly. and this was even without the involvement of salt water..
While not closing tag or using head / body element is a matter of taste, not using the HTML element with a proper lang attribute and missing the title element can lead to accessibility issues.
I envy your use cases, but it's 25 years since I used debuggers. I just didn't have the use case.

With Haskell being a tough nut, maybe it could help though. So may as well try it.

I found git trivial to start using immediately, and almost possible to understand from first principles (ie. almost like versioned subdirs improved). It's a bit more involved, but with right online content, one starts to catch on (leaving magical thinking).
Do you have a link where I can read more about this? Nothing came up from my googling.
We may be technical, but we are beholden to products we use as well. Being technical can also mean we are more aware of the dangers of upgrading too soon.
Quite a few of my ancestors migrated with almost no assets whatsoever to their names, while others had substantial assets.

Surprisingly, automatic language detection isn't always reliable. And since the DOM actually has an attribute for this, which can also be placed on individual elements like a p or div, the first choice IMO is to rely on what the site declared.
The harder they push a feature, the more valuable the data they're stealing from you.

Google as an example. They push their "sensor fusion" location service EXTREMELY hard on Android. It will ask you to turn it on every time an app requests location and GPS hasn't locked. It's hard to not turn it on by accident. And once you hit yes, you never see another notification.

Well it turns out this "location service" provides some of the most valuable data Google ever receives. It's tied to their maps live traffic, "how busy is this place" features, location based advertising, wifi based mapping, accuracy of their IP->location maps.

It's creepy data core to their business and if too many people turned it off, it would seriously degrade their mass data collection.

Oh, and it's often given to law enforcement for dubiously legal "area" warrants where they simply say "give me all devices in this radius at this time". Where the radius can be hundreds of meters and the time can be hours.
That's why I wrote it.
I find it really crazy how far this had to go to support something as simple as sleep. I became aware of this problem when I started writing WASI last year. So so much unix code is based on the idea of synchronous operations. My conclusions were that some sort of ability to have atomics that could pause a web assembly running on a web worker while an async operation completed then unlocked the blocked web assembly was the only way this could be sanely done.
Driving 1000 miles per day is anywhere between 12 and 14 hours solid driving. You are the outlier of outliers. On a trip that length, hitting any traffic is likely to slow you down more than having to recharge your vehicle.

Maybe an electric vehicle on it's current form isn't going to work for you with a regular 1000 mile per day trip, but you're at least 15 years off _new_ petrol vehicle sales being banned, so second hand ones are around for another 25 at least.

As an aside, this individualist respond of "well i can't do a 1000 mile road trip in one sitting" is why these vehicles are being phased out by legislation, because people won't even consider the _smallest_ changes to their driving habits without being forced to.
Acura is German, not Japanese, you're not replying to the correct comment, I think.

Also, Acura's trackpad or whatever just needs a cursor. I wonder why they didn't think of that.
There's a place for e2e tests that run the actual services, and a place for tests that use mock servers. As a full stack developer, I know for a fact that spinning up a service, even if it's dockerized, is more often than not a hassle. Maybe because of configuration hell, maybe because setting up the database (with the migrations, fixture data, etc.) is never a straightforward job even if it's "automated". And if the architecture requires service A to talk to service B, which in turn needs to talk to service C, you end up having to spin up way too much infrastructure (each with their own configuration and database setup hells) for just a simple test. It's not worth it, and often it's not feasible since you may not even have enough memory in your computer.

For frontend developers or data scientists who couldn't care less about the backend, going through this hassle is frustrating and there's no reason why they should go through it.

Mocks are also a fundamental part of building integrations, since they allow both backend and frontend teams to work in parallel against a specification/contract.

That said, for the real integration test, you do need to run the real services and have them talking to each other. If you can do that in your own machine, great. But often the only feasible way to do this is in the cloud.
For Oscars, probably yes. For Nobel Prizes, not so necessarily. The Physics one tends to be awarded for stuff done one or more decades ago. E.g. Peter Higgs got his after retirement.
Unlike the Turing award and at least some Nobel prizes, Oscars are awarded for one performance, within one year of the performance.
Bravo, watching Rossman and learned nothing...but hey, buy your Macbook if you like to produce e-waste.
