> they don't fuck up an entire city

Skyscrapers fuck up a city how???? Do you expect Manhattan to consist entirely of 2 story suburban homes? It's attitudes like yours that are the reason the streets are full of so many homeless.
That is all well and good, but did you consider that it would mean that your house would become tainted with the poority of someone who cannot even afford to not live in it? Who knows if it's infectious? It would become a cheap second-hand house. And there's like a bunch of random strangers, one of who might be a serial killer. Better to just stay away from that.

... is how imagine their thought process.
Have you taken to (small) court any platform that refuses you that resale ? Probably not, can't bother / don't have the time nor money / ... Neither have I, just to be clear.

That's why these cases end up being solved once consumer associations go to court in the name of their members. Eg UFC Que Choisir went against steam and won in the first court here in France, it was posted on HN a few months back. Now it needs to go all the way to a final decision.

If you're wondering "what can I do", either take them to court, or donate to your local consumer association and make sure your issues are known and heard by them.
I would not choose any framework, instead creating my own and if possible a component library to support it.

Having good standards to create your CSS (naming conventions and file structure (ITSS) is fundamental, but in the end you will have something that fits so much better than a 3rd party framework.

>If competition ceases or is discouraged, projects often morph into mindless corporate sponsored churn and unoriginal rewrites.

Not true, this is some recent thing. KDE goes strong with few corporate support, the issue would be if some other projects gets unfair advantages so you get something with worse architecture and quality more popular.

And with open source you do not see 10 kernels competing, you have a few and all the other kernels are toys or experiments.

Why did US and Russia and the other worked together on the ISS? are they insane? would make more sense that each country creates it's own rocket, it's own space station , it's own telescopes and not collaborate ?

Could be cases where cooperation can solve something and competition would be incapable of solving or would solve it but with much more costs (maybe human lives)?
From the article: "The Ad5 variety has infected a solid proportion of the entire human race [...].

I'm sure google do this, but I won't use gmail. I have some of my domains on fastmail for family members to use and the rest of them on a VM that I simply run postfix and read emails as text files. My own mail server supports infinite number of aliases and there is no tracking on my own mail server since every email is text and the server discards MDN's. If I need to read html, I pipe the email to a parsemime perl script from 2001.

Fastmail makes some attempt at blocking tracking, not perfect, depends on user preference and default is to allow remote images. [1] Another advantage to this method is that if I get annoyed with Fastmail, I can update DNS and they are out of the picture.

> There was a huge push for open APIs for over a decade and then they started taking it away under the guise of 'user safety' when really it was due to 'can't make more money' with it.

Cambridge analytica is a well known issue of what happens when these platforms have open APIs as well.

Especially for Facebook it began to seem like a downside that created PR damage I think - people were far more interested in attacking it for “privacy violations” rather than celebrating the openness of the api and data.

Many modern US "conservatives" complain that Star Trek is political, and when it was Kirk and Picard it wasn't.

The benefits of playing Factorio compared to? Compared to programming on your own project? Compared to reading something intellectually stimulating? Compared to working out or investing time to eat healthy and sleep properly? Compared to spending time with people you love? Compared to fulfilling your actual _responsibilities_?

> "If you’re in a slump (rut), chances are you feel like you can’t complete anything. You feel like you’re unable to finish anything so what’s the point of starting. Factorio is a great cure against that. Especially when you view it as a challenge."

"Why you should play Factorio" ; you absolutely can, it might have more benefits for you than other games, but besides that I really have trouble with such a headline, especially since the URL is called "deprocastination" (the home page sells an e-book, which promises to solve your problems and you can sign up via e-mail, not confidence inspiring). If you want to stop procrastinating, you probably should just delete Steam and get on with your tasks?

I'm not saying it's easy. There are things that can help: Meditation, proper task scheduling, talking to people about your problems, stress management techniques, in extreme cases therapy ...

"Play Factorio!" - Great advice /s

> "You can start taking the skills you learned and use them for anything else that is productive."

There is no technological cure to a spiritual problem. This is selling snake oil.

Edit1: interesting to see the up-/ and downvotes on this. I am not dissing gaming, not dissing the game. But recommending a computer game as a means to deal with procrastination and develop "real life skills you can use being productive" (paraphrased), that notion I do indeed find ludicrous and stand by it.

Edit2: From an answer I gave to a comment below (sorry for the edit, but I think I worded it in a nice way there):

The implication, that "procrastination" means "no due diligence" in anything is _WRONG_. It's due diligence in things that should take no priority as the very means to avoid the things you should be doing instead!

"Play Factorio, it has benefits for you that help you be productive" in response to someone dealing with procrastination? If that isn't absurd, I don't know what is.
They get to disrupt the US government and make them look like hapless chumps while maintaining plausible deniability. There are still only hypotheses about the nature of these attacks and doubt as to whether these attacks are actually happening and, if so, whether each victim is legit, an attention-seeker, a hypochondriac, or is faking it to gain some benefit. If this is actually real, it’s diabolically clever.

Actually, I think your comment belongs in the bin. No one was making generalisations until you stepped in. Denmark may be this unionised Utopia that everyone can learn from (I doubt it) but unions in other countries (e.g. UK, South Africa) can exhibit these counter-productive behaviours as described.
Someone with better medical knowledge than me: are there known illnesses that cause the kinds of symptoms these "attacks" look like?

> It's good to understand many perspectives before picking a side, if any.

With that in mind, I'd point out that the history of unionisation in America (and everywhere) is one of extensive bloodshed as employees have died both from unsafe labour practices [1], as well as from outright murder, intimidation and other attempts at shutting down organisation of labour.

So, yeah, it's divisive. May 1st as the international day for labour demonstrations was put in place to commemorate the Chicago Haymarket Massacre [2], on the request of what is now the AFL-CIO, and to resume the fight for the 8 hour working day that costs many lives and caused far more injuries and people forced out of their jobs - a fight that took many decades.

It's very easy to ask people to not be "divisive" when you're the one with the money and the power, and not the ones who have the rights they have now as a consequence of the deaths and sacrifices of people being "divisive" by daring to stand up for themselves.

The OP is incredulous that anybody could not want to be in a union.

My point is that some people legitimately do not want to be in a union, and there's nothing unfathomable about this, because they have many downsides. For example where I'm from if you were a Jewish supporter of the Green Party you may find it extremely offensive to have your union representatives promoting the Labour Party.

So you may get a legitimate, democratic, decision to not let the union represent them.

That's the point. Forget about tying it to this particular situation if you want to.
This assumes that those channels are of equal value. Email is a spammy noise hole!

Not a single comment in the six hours since this momentous story was submitted about the feat of successfully building and launching the second of only two operational space stations orbiting the Earth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_space_stations#Operati...

Curious.

Short CGTN video: “China launches 'Tianhe,' core module of space station
” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHdkt9ncb9M

Context. “Since 2011, the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has excluded the Chinese government or any organisations affiliated with China in any capacity, even non-political, from its activities, including using funds to host Chinese visitors at NASA facilities.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_exclusion_policy_of_NASA

Ten years later China launches the core module of its own space station. Necessity being the mother of invention.

For the HN crowd. In 2020 the US blocks the transfer of high tech semiconductors and semiconductor equipment to SMIC and Huawei – puts them and other companies on the benign sounding Entity List: https://eandt.theiet.org/content/articles/2020/12/smic-and-d...

Prediction. By 2030 China will have its own 5nm and 3nm fabs.
Not quite. The position is that government has an unfair advantage in competition (might be regulatory or being funded by taxation, or maybe free scale by being a government supplier) so they can push out suppliers who would otherwise supply a better / cheaper service.

The UK does not have any low cost healthcare providers because you can’t compete with a tax payer funded organisation.

Now, do government services tend to be better? That’s another question.
Should I replace with email instead?

That's probably a better idea.

Fixed.

Why making chips is so hard
Yup. I had to call iStockPhoto about pricing and the entire thing soured me so bad on it that I basically told them I was out. I shouldn't have to call to get a price. It wasn't even my money and the company would've paid it just the same. But the principle of the matter is that if you want to piss customers off, hiding information is a clear way to do so.
I've wondered what you'd get if you put a "photo finish" camera on the side of a car. The perspective would be out of whack (e.g. a 10 m long object 20 m away looks the same length as a 10 m long object 2000 m away) but it would be a much cheaper sensor than what Google uses for street view.

As someone who grew up in such an environment, 90+% of my peers spent the entirety of our adolescence doing as much as possible to get away from suburban hells like that. And you know what's ironic? I have way more access to actual nature now that I live in a city close to some national parks than I did when I was younger and was trapped in endless suburbia.
How did the citizens feel about these lavish displays? To me it gives an uncomfortable feeling. It's no wonder many people wanted reforms.

I hope all of you are staying safe. I am trying to gather some information through a quick survey for an App I am working on.

I hope you guys can take this quick survey and help us understand our next steps.

This is not what the article is about. The article is about disclosing cost and profit alongside price.
If there are supposed to be two photo finish cameras, how can the photo finish be the true arbiter? The two cameras cannot possibly be perfectly aligned.
I guess that remote workers in the past were those motivated enough to seek it out and thrive despite against a strong sentiment against it. Now, those who weren't have to work remotely anyway.
Hiding the price also makes the whole purchase process more costly (time intensive) for the buyer and it prevents impulse buying.
> commuting

Assuming you're driving yourself, this is universally a productivity killer. You risking a huge amount of frustrating and angering situations while your workers are commuting to a central location. I'd put good money on a lot of lost productivity to commute.

Then there's the people who have to commute, due to functionally in-person jobs (artisans, doctors, baristas, etc.). Optional commuters going to the office for their "social fix" are doing so at the expense of forced commuters. Work should be work and social should be social; if you want a social experience during work hours then have a social lunch in your neighborhood.
The Fourier transformation is a special case of a linear transformation. Linear neural networks can represent any linear transformation. Both can also be expressed as matrix multiplication.

It's not really all that surprising if you know some of the math behind neural networks, matrix algebra, linear transformations or the Fourier transformation.
They complained about Picard. I wasn’t allowed to watch it as a kid because my parents didn’t like the political agenda (my guess, though I’ve never asked them, is they thought it was communist/ anticaptitalist due to the absence of money).
Sorry, but your reply sounds like "just stop being poor".

Procrastination is serious problem and anything that helps someone deal with it should not be dismissed.

Edit:

Procrastination is all about avoiding a problem (could be work, could be phone call, anything really) by looking for excuses/reasons why it cannot be done or why it must be postponed before something else is done first.

In Factorio, if you don't have enough let's say steel plates, you _HAVE_ to go and increase your ore production. No excuses will help you avoid the issue and if you get used to it, it can help you get this attitude outside the game and apply what you've learned in real life.

Edit2: (I can bypass the time lock this way? interesting)

Considering I'm nice person as well, I'm just going to say that it's probably more useful for people actually having the problem than meditation and similar new age nonsense.

Doing anything right when it needs to be done can be a huge step forward from the horrible swamp that is procrastination.
Exactly this. Plus, I didn’t see “profit” mentioned anywhere in the costs, and the article also touches upon the (mostly obvious) fact that for high margin goods this would impact them negatively.
This is regarding costs to produce items, not prices.
Regarding the swimming issue, there is no underwater photo at the website which you linked, but one can google it, and it clearly shows that Phelps came in second. Arguments were made by Omega that the finish pad did not register Cavic's press on time since the force used was not enough.

Moral of the story is that human error (be that of a mechanical nature) will always exist, but more care should be given in competitive sports.
If you do not have the means to decide the winner, call it a tie, but if you do, even at the cost of a 350,000 photo/sec camera, then do it, but by all means do it correctly, because it might cost someone a gold medal at the Olympic games, and for the sake of people who put their life into competitive sports, this should not happen.

Here's how I've had this explained before. You see the same thing in California with their real estate market. Buying property in these markets is a foolproof investment. Even if it sits empty for 2-5 years, you will still make money.

Therefore, renting it out is a secondary concern. You could rent it out, but that comes with all sorts of liabilities - what if tenants damage your property, stop paying, claim squatter's rights, infest the property with bedbugs, etc. There's a number of things that could go wrong with renting, and many landlords rarely make much profit on rental units.

So for these millionaires and billionaires it's easier to simply not rent them out at all.
