I am using a HHKB Pro Hybrid as a daily driver at work and a Realforce 104-u at home.

There is no such thing as the perfect keyboard, but HHKB Pro layout is something that stood its test of time (~10 years). And I don't see it getting replaced.

The Realforce may get benched, because I'm getting more used to wireless keyboards. So far it hasn't happened yet.

Tying healthcare insurance to employment isn't really the direction we want to be going.

When the individual market was terrible, it made sense to push employers to buy it for their workers, because you got better coverage for less money that way.

Now the state marketplaces are at least mediocre; coverage and costs are similar to what you might get as a small or mid sized employer. We should be pushing people towards marketplace plans, and not trying to continue the employer plan model.
You pay capital gains on the nominal profit (versus real profit, which may actually be a real loss as in the example). You have not paid double the taxes unless you screwed up and selected a cost-basis of $0 versus the actual non-zero value.
I've not had to do anything other than light cleaning. When I moved a few years ago all of my keyboards were in the same box. Apparently it got really hot because a smaller (TKL) style Lexmark era IBM keyboard in that box melted, but my 2 Model Ms were fine.

These things are built like tanks. I don't think I'll ever have to do any repairs on them.
There isn't enough time in the day to be an FTE and run a consulting company. But there is enough time to do your FTE work and then go out at night and network your ass off to get a large consulting contract of some sort. I.e. actually doing consulting work is blocking you from landing a big enough client / contract to quit your FTE.

That said, if the thought of shaking hands, giving free talks, and doing anything else to get a large client that you can be certain will actually pay their bill, then you probably shouldn't quit your FTE.

HHKB Professional 2 (https://www.hhkeyboard.com/uk/products/pro2/).

Likes: It's the best, most reliable 60% keyboard I've found, and that's the size I strongly prefer. It's very compact, it's comfortable, and the layout of keys that are often weird on 60% layouts (e.g. arrows, tilde) are sensible.

I've tried a number of other 60% models and they all either had lousy layout decisions or just weren't very reliable (I had two KBParadise V60s have certain keys start to fail in < 1 yr). Both my HHKBs are going strong after several years.

Dislikes: Topre switches are... fine. Way better than most membrane keyboards, but I would prefer proper mechanical Cherry or Gateron switches. (If you like the mechanical feel but not noise, you may very well like Topres, FWIW.)

You probably saw the other recent thread about mechanical keyboards at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26989563 - a lot of the comments there match my experience. There's cool stuff in the mechanical keyboard community, but there's also a lot of unreasonable pricing and small-batch manufacturing with less-than-reliable quality/consistency. I sort of pigeonholed myself by developing a strong preference for a 60% layout - there are a lot more options out there for larger keyboards. But once I decided that it was 60% or bust, HHKB became the natural choice. It's the only keyboard of this general form factor I've found that is basically a commodity, meaning 1) I'm confident of what I'm getting when I buy it, 2) the price is reasonable and 3) I'm also confident the company will still be around and making a similar product in 5-10 years if I need to buy another one.
Your argument doesnt work, because your smd is crypto locks and monopolistic "you cant sell this part to anybody else" business deals. Manufacturers are starting to use cryptographic handshakes between components.
The ideas (attribute based access control) have stood the test of time, but the spec is archaic, and there are relatively few implementations. You can achieve alot of what XACML was intended for with a general-purpose policy engine (OPA).
Never forget internationalisation. It is so hard to get a mechanical keyboard that is not an ANSI US keyboard.
> you're paying for those regardless of whether you have the job or not.

...unless you're not paying for those because you literally don't have any money.

So yeah, food is a sunk cost, sure. But that sinking will kill you without a job.
I have a Das Keyboard Model S Professional with MX Brown switches. I like it fine - it's solid, and works fine. Not too hard to pull the keycaps and clean it. I like the built-in USB slot, though really it's just a passthrough.

The MX Browns are still pretty loud and "clacky" for use when on a call or video conference. If I make and effort to type softly I can get away with it, but full speed typing is pretty loud.

TBH I'm not that much of a keyboard nut though. For me personally the experience doesn't justify the price, though this keyboard may last long enough that the amortized cost makes it worthwhile.
It's a slip of the mask that your argument, again and again, is "you're white". Are you analyzing my prose to determine my skin color?

I didn't say a thing about "respecting views". I support your right to spit your venom but I can criticize your racialist nonsense, which is all I'm doing. I never said you shouldn't be able to speak, only that you should be ashamed of what you've chosen to say.

> I don't think anybody's consciousness is "determined" by anything. But there are strong correlations. The language people speak, their religion, their customs, and many of their views are usually taken from the people around them growing up. That's the whole point of culture, after all: inter-generational transmission of non-genetic adaptation.

Yes, of course it's just a strong correlation. We've established that. As you said, it's all those other white males, not you.

Of course this is all nonsense. There is no theory of culture. Culture exists, it affects behavior, but there is no theory that describes how, just garden-variety bigotry. You shift between banalities ("culture affects behavior") and clear statements about what constitutes a "white male mentality" as if you had a theory of culture or a theory of mentality. How else could you claim to know my skin color based on what I've written? Of course you have no theories, it's all bullshit.

The fact that you cite pseudo-intellectual hucksters (Kendi, DiAngelo) is all that needs to be said about the trough you've been drinking from. If you want to find a better religion read the Bible.
More so than Ireland was in 1921? And will that continue to be the case, with the NIP imposing barriers between it & GB?
Exactly. Just like if you get 1000 people in a room, odds are one of them will get a coin toss right 10 times in a row. Doesn't mean that guy is good at predicting coin tosses.
Can you give an example? Your statement feels like propaganda by the wealthy. So far they got a lot of tax cuts in the last few decades.
I'm saying it's an edge case you shouldn't optimise for. Otherwise, if you're displaying an image at 640x480 CSS pixels, how wide should the image be in pixels? 2,000? 3,000? 10,000? Maybe each image should be 10MB just in case the user zooms in that far?

I think you should optimise for regular display size and density.
nevermind the paper is stupid and not saying there are way of breaking out of the wasm sandbox.
It's simply saying if your WASM code was generated from C/C++ code that contain undefined behavior it might still do unexcepted things but those thing does not include breaking out of the sandbox.
> You can take over the browser by chaining exploits. Sections 5.1 and 5.2 show two examples.

5.1 is XSS due to using document.write with a user provided string. That's not taking over the browser and is very much possible from JS (it's basically the prototypical XSS example from well before there was wasm).

5.2 is more serious but in node, not the browser, and is barely a chain (two exploits?). It's a way to get a string to eval() if eval() is available in one of the indirect functions. I think the authors also overstate the benefits of ASLR in that case. If that same code was running natively in a server and exposed to direct user input like that, it's very possible an RCE could be made to work.

These examples are simple by design since they're just demonstrations that it's possible, so more sophisticated attacks are possible, but we also shouldn't over extrapolate from them.
Oh yeah, one more USA specific thing. Factor in health insurance costs. A catastrophic or high deductible plan is probably a good option, but the right plan depends on your circumstances. Don't forget it though.
People will always take the cheaper option, so might as well make that the only option instead of causing what will surely be claimed in the future as a decision trap for consumers. Hey, maybe 30% already was the cheaper option and they did just that?

Allowing sideloading apps or alternative app stores will send the platform straight to hell, by opening up new exploit vectors in an already insanely complex system, and/or creating new and perverse incentive models for app developers and app store providers.

We’re going to turn smartphones and the app ecosystem into what has become of journalism in the digital age of information because we want nice things for cheap/free.

Cheap/fast/good. Apple has always aimed for the last two. You’re going to have to sacrifice one to get the “cheap” part.
The people behind the tax already have a friendly challenge lawsuit ready. Odds are among lawyers in this state that that the court will let the tax stand, unfortunately.

The best part is this tax basically is a trojan horse. In it's present form it'll raise a small amount of money- $400M. Originally it was supposed to be a much lower threshold- ~10$k if I remember right. So it'll be ratcheted down of course.
TypeMatrix 2030 with Dvorak layout (for the past 10+ years or so).

I really really like the alignment of the keys and the transparent skin on top of the complete keyboard making typing smooth, reducing noise and protecting it from dirty.

I like it so much that I bought a second one with a second skin as a backup in case of something happening to the first one.

Closest was probably the concept of Christendom, the part of the world unified by the Christian religion. Remember both the Catholic/Orthodox and Catholic/Protestant splits were well in the future.
It's mostly a gimmick, but for home/small business users I think it is actually pretty useful.

A mobile power bank-sized battery like this can probably power a NAS like this for at least 10-15 minutes (personal experience messing around with USB-C).

Most home/small business NAS usage is SMB file sharing, and SMB writes are async. Just a minute to sync writes and close the file system safely is huge for most users.

As someone who has supported a small business, just being able to handle the 5 minutes between someone running the coffee maker at the same time as the fridge and then resetting the breaker is huge.

These are all sunk costs. You need them regardless of whether you have a job or not. You seem to be talking about your general finances (ie. your expenses > your income), whereas I interpreted mywittyname's comment as saying that the job itself is a net loss (ie. your cost of getting the job > your income from job).

Yeah, but that's the thing - you need to consciously organize such events. I'm sure remote only companies have always done such informal "mixer" events but companies that were not heavily into WFH might no be aware it's needed untill all the social inteaction based stuff thats currently coasting with inertia comes to a halt.
It's great news! The little playful jab on the magnifying glasses suggests we could see some great UI/UX fixes.
Have you even used LiveView? It's not opinionated in any way, you can do whatever you want with it. It gives you extra features to remotely change pages but if you don't like having them you don't have to use them at all and can plug your favourite JS framework if you want to (or you can just use it for parts of the apps and not the rest if you want to).

I've worked for years with React and Angular and I don't really miss anything with a LiveView-based stack. LiveView features gives you 90% of what you want out of the box and for the rest it's fine having a bit of JS here and there to ensure a good experience.
I'm fairly certain that you just need to codesign --deep here, as that's all I've ever done.
I did not say that the only motivation behind the nonintervention was profit, but it would have been one of the results of the policy. Even if true, your unproven claim that we let Canada steal from us does not mean much of America would have happily sat back and profited.

>Thus, whatever the US does, the goal is selfish, evil, cruel? Sure, that sound reasonable, fair.

That is what it means to be an empire. There's no "good" empire, they all exist to prop themselves up to greater heights.
5 year old laptops are repairable, but fewer and fewer new ones are not. I've been in the market recently and it's extremely frustrating trying to find a laptop that doesn't have the RAM soldered in place. Sure, it can technically be desoldered, but that's not how it used to be.
Vast oversimplification: it's because of chargebacks and fraud. It works kind of like an insurance, someone needs to take the loss at some point and fixed amount doesn't work for that (or would massively hike the fees for cheap sales).

That's why when EU capped the fee "so low" we also massively pushed for 3D secure deployment, so those lower fees would still easily cover it.

> rash decision?

Maybe they like to WFH and they are good at what they do.
If they can buy a house and pay half in repayments than what they were paying in rent, then is that rash decision?

I'd rather earn less and have a house and no commute.

Maybe its a case of people realising that there are other ways of living.
No they're not. Leasing implies a limited, fixed term. Financing and leasing are two different transactions.

I think his point was the initial dollar you invested was at some point subject to income tax to get it.
Switched recently to a Keychron K4 (v2), the aluminum/hot-swap model. It's heavy and solid, compact enough that I can have a numeric keypad without feeling like my trackball is off to the right somewhere in Narnia, and the default keycaps and lighting are (to me) really classy and good-looking.

I bought it with Gateron Reds (linear) and then swapped the core keys (alphanumerics, keypad) to Kailh Box Whites because I really like the clickiness. Weirdly, having the outer keys on a linear switch is pretty comfortable, probably because those are often hit with weaker fingers or odd angles, so having a light linear reduces finger fatigue. I absolutely love the clickiness, and the sound with the aluminum frame and the default keycaps is really solid. Once I got the default switches out (the tolerance in the aluminum frame is pretty tight, so getting the default switches out requires a really firm tug!), swapping switches on a whim is pretty easy, so I'm looking forward to playing with some other switches as we go.

On the down side, the absolutely uniform layout of the keys definitely throws my fingers for a loop. I'm used to TKL-style keyboards where the arrow keys or special modifiers up top are easy to find by touch because they're surrounded by a gap. That's no longer the case, so I had to get creative. At the moment, the solution is to use SA-profile keycaps on those keys, which are much taller than the default keycaps. It doesn't look wonderful, but it's pretty effective: I can now find the arrow keys pretty consistently without looking down, and I can find the middle of the numeric keypad thanks to the scooped 5 key in the center. I also miss having programmable macro keys, but I worked around it by using Karabiner to convert the NumLock key (which does nothing on Mac OS) to a Hyper key so that I can use that for key combos across the keyboard. And as an extra, a picked up a little six-key keypad (usually intended for Osu) that also has hot-swap switches, and I've been fiddling with programming that for extra macros like muting/unmuting in Zoom & Webex.
They don't "play games" in any common meaning of the term though. It's not entertainment, it's work. It's not intended to pass the time, they train long hours to get better. Very, very, very few people do that, because it's not fun, it's work.
I use a Dell KB813t. Standard company issue smartbadge keyboard. Can't get a different keyboard without two levels of management approval (and there aren't any available keyboards due to cost cutting), and I cannot bring in my own without cybersecurity and customer approval.

> I agree that Google management made this decision mostly on gut feel. But I think that it aligns with my own gut feel

There's another term for that: Confirmation bias.

That's fine, but let's not pretend your opinion is any more valid than anyone else's, including the individual employees who feel differently.

The reality is no one, here, is actually basing their opinion on data. Absent that this is basically faith. Which is great 'cuz then we can all just agree to disagree. ;)
> By what metric is Macbeth better than the Da Vinci Code?

I like this question. Let’s say that we can create a list of 10 quantitative measures of the story, all binary and all comparative, e.g. which has the best pacing? which makes the best use of supporting characters? Now we can total up the answers and produce a number, e.g. Macbeth is better than the Da Vinci Code in 30% of our measures.

You could repeat this process pair-wise with lots of books and produce a ranking.
"I think anything publicizing "right to repair" in mainstream media is a good thing."

Absolutely, the more the merrier. Also, I believe that lay people are now becoming aware of the fact, as I've seen many articles both in the daily press and on the television news about it (where I live the Government's current inquiry into the matter seeking public comment has been reasonably well covered).
Income taxes are not unconstitutional. Progressive income taxes are. No one wants to impose a flat income tax though.
There's no monopoly on credit cards though. There's multiple providers, some countries have their own (cheaper) debit card networks, and you can still pay with cash.

Did the device stop working or did they just stop updating it? If it actually stopped working then I agree it is really shitty of them and even if they stopped providing security updates it is kind of shitty of them. But I think the solution is to take your business elsewhere. It's not as if Apple has a monopoly on the smartphone market and you don't have other options.
I also have the Keychron K1 (full size), but an older revision. My priorities were: Mac layout, reliable, relatively quiet, full size, and not obnoxiously ugly. The K1 checked all of those boxes (once I confirmed I could turn off the multicolor backlight).

They’ve improved one of my main complaints by making the keys not entirely flat. Which potentially could help mitigate my other major complaint: there isn’t enough space between the columns, I often mistakenly hit insert when I mean to hit backspace, and even more often miss when trying to use the arrow keys.

A minor complaint is, like many keyboards offering both Mac/PC layouts, the number pad is still not quite familiar.

All of that said, it’s probably the best keyboard I’ve owned since I gave up on trying to keep an Apple Extended working. I’ve been through too many Matias keyboards and they’re nice but too unreliable. And I won’t even bother trying to remember the half dozen other brands I’ve tried, they’ve all been disappointing particularly on a Mac.
