Also interesting to note, that some of those APIs are still in W3C drafts. So Chrome just went ahead and wrote its own implementation without the literal standards body agreeing or disagreeing on them.

> A truly innovative product would learn from the mistakes of predecessor platforms and would focus on things like privacy, security and accessibility.

Privacy comes at a big cost to VC funded companies that have no business plan and focus on getting billions of users to profile and profit from.

Security is becoming a lost cause with each passing day. The amount of personal data leaked online dwarfs the amount of personal data not leaked online (citation needed, but this is what it appears like to lay people).

Accessibility is usually an afterthought that comes into focus after a billion (or two) users are captured to firm up valuations or when the threat of lawsuits arise in jurisdictions where that’s a possibility.

> This is our opportunity to demand more and to demand better. After all, if Clubhouse users do not demand these things from the outset, why should the policy makers whom we ask to regulate these technologies care?

Clubhouse users aren’t going to demand any of these just like Facebook users didn’t demand better from Facebook and its companies, and in the face of more abuse by the platform didn’t leave those. The revenue and profit numbers speak to the kind of addiction that these platforms manage to create and grow.

Those who care are more likely not to use Clubhouse in the first place. Yet, policy makers do need to be reminded of their duty to protect people even if said people don’t understand or don’t seem to care.
If you're working on a personal project, which as others have said should give you some drive to get started, don't fall into the trap of making things too complicated too quickly. You'll get side tracked, fail to complete the core behavior and get discouraged at your own lack of progress.

Set a small goal and only when it's finished start working on something else, make a kanban board with small tasks. Don't think too far ahead with "oh, I'd like to add x in the future, so I should architect y so that's possible". Don't endlessly review and refine the code you've already written trying to achieve perfection.

By all means capture these next features in a notebook, but act like you're working on a 'real' project and have an actual deadline. It might also help to make commitments to show other people what you've done, I always work best when I have an audience otherwise I quickly fall into the trap of trying to make the perfect system because I know there's no hard-limit on my time. YMMV obviously.
That number is actually lower than I thought it could be...

> one of the problems I worked on at Etsy was getting people to stop using their cart as a bookmarking tool

I bookmark things in my cart in both Etsy and Reverb because the bookmarking requires an account, and I'm definitely not making one. But at least that doesn't seem to count in the "x users have this in their cart".
The code morphing software itself is almost certainly a new source of new side channel spectre like attacks. Like being able to tell if something is already in the translation cache via timing.
A highly technically skilled but anti-social team member can easily have negative productivity as they bring down (or drive out) everyone else in the team.

A few months ago i had an accident in a "90s Volvo". A Volvo 850 to be exact. A Toyota Aygo got into my lane on a country road. A car that is 15 years newer in design and is also considerably lighter than the Volvo. It was basically a head on impact at about 70-80 km/h(where 100 is allowed, i braked quite a bit). While i didn't walk away because of the shock, i could. I had no injuries apart from scuff marks and my right leg hurt slightly but the doctors didn't find anything and the pain went away hours after the incident. The Toyota driver was not that well off. Quite a few broken bones and he was totally trapped in the car. After that incident, i surely know what car to purchase. And i did.

I think that video is about the 940 vs the modus from fifth gear. I won't watch the 15 minute video to find a few seconds of crash test buried somewhere. If that is the crash test from Fifth gear: that Volvo 940 had the engine removed. Usually cars who have crashes have engines.

Unsafe at any speed. By Ralph Nader. A guy who wrote a book about the safety of cars while not having a drivers license. The discussion the book started was good, the book itself was not. You cannot really complain about safety features being an option instead of included by default if you don't pick them. And yes, rear wheel drive requires some driving skills to master. If you don't want to learn, get a chauffeur or a car more fit to your skills.
Actually surprised it's only 1 in 5, because we don't have anything close to a useful charging grid deployed in this country, and it will take some time before we can get one. If PEVs can retain 80% of the people who try them with the current lack of supporting infrastructure, that's a pretty good outcome for PEV manufacturers.
Well that's just completely wrong.

You never lived in that time where people had their Nokia phones in those leather zip cases which completely covered the device clipped to their waist? Or the fact that many Nokia phones had removable front and back cases that you could replace yourself?

And writing that piece for The Atlantic is a fine accomplishment, too.

I read somewhere (or internalized) something like: great mythologies are full of good humor. I love how his opening paragraph is of angst so relatable (social group) and so laughable (here's my consulting partner, Rabbit).
I think this highlights the point that we need more charging stations. Ya, I know it sounds obvious but someone is going to get very rich solving this problem. There is no question that gas automobiles are going to be replaced by electric ones. The question is, "who is going to get rich replacing gas stations?" Talk about a problem asking to be solved.
I don't know what I was expecting, but I'm a bit disappointed they're all so programming focused. Though it seems like that may be the point.

Journalism is not "reporting exactly what happened" - journalism is supposed to be investigation, and to draw conclusions.

Obviously there's bias, but that's the point: journalism has never and should not be "this person said 1 thing, someone else said a different thing". It's the path of "should you drink bleach? Scientists say no, this random nutbag says yes."

You're speaking directly past your parent's point. I've spent years optimizing physics simulations, more abstract discrete math stuff, etc. myself. There, especially there, it's usually pretty easy to identify what should be the hot loop, by eye. Easier with a profiler if the project gets big. In scientific computing, it's very common to find that 99% of the time is spent on a scant few lines of code. Unless somebody bungs up the I/O and you end up spending 99% of the time there instead, but I digress.

But a whole OS, with a browser, network stack, dozens of applcations, etc., it's pretty common to find hundreds or thousands of things which are all more or less equally sucking performance. So on one hand, it's a much harder problem. On the other hand, front-end people have this attitude that performance doesn't matter because hardware is fast enough and it's better to write in the most abstract language possible because changing diapers makes your hands smell gross.
And can you really define where this beyond lies? You know, emergencies costs variance is huge, and home ownership too.

Ask HN: How to write a (legal) contract for an API service
My startup is getting customers for our new API service -- we are using rapidapi, and it has the option to embed a Docusign contract. We would like to have a simple contract that puts into writing the simple agreement, but none of us are lawyers. How do we write such a contract? Are there samples online? Is it a good idea to have the contract? Any suggestions and best practices is appreciated! Thank you!
Sounds like a precursor to Distributed Autonomous Organizations. Although previous experiments in these have been disastrous to say the least, I find the idea very appealing.
It would be much easier for a vendor to turn off speculative compilation in that case though, i.e. for HPC you want all the performance, but a cloud vendor could still protect vulnerable interfaces.
Generally it's whatever speed that forces you to account for relativity for you desired precision. However, I've seen 10% referenced as a lower limit.

One would think it would make more sense marketing EVs to businesses with large fleets like bussing and trucking that could help with the capital investment in recharging infrastructure that then could be built upon by individual consumers.
Makes me wonder, if a relativistic star passes through a decently thick dust cloud could its bowshock achieve fusion and glow brighter than the star? That would be quite the impressive lightshow
Would they qualify as stars? Would they be able to maintain integrity with the relativistic change of mass (across its volume) while still running the fusion process?
These are related: the faster the browser and the typical internet connection is, the bigger sites will be (absent some force to prevent developers from spending the entirety of the new performance budget.)
> my judgement is more correct for me - because it is

That is plain arrogant. Not only you refuse to remember that you may be wrong, you also want search engines to protect you from ever discovering that.

What if your neighbor likes something that will eventually hurt you. For example, burning the nearby 5G tower that serves your phone, because they like the theory that will improve everyone's health around. Is their judgement correct for them? Do you want them to get more of stuff they like? Should their community of single-minded people be assisted by search engines in avoiding (what they think is) spam?

I understand everybody wants less SEO spam, I simply point that the solution you're thinking about has already been tried and found to have consequences no one expected. "Give me more stuff that I like" is the old problem. The new problem is called "How to find more stuff that I like without creating an echo chamber".

I'm thinking of building a Pager with the pygo2 once it finally hits the market: https://pycom.io/product/pygo2/

It's got LTE-M which is perfect for this, and LoRa and SigFox as backup. A year's service is about $40

Unfortunately it's not untracked like the old pagers were but in return it should do confirmations and even replies somehow. I'll have to add a beeper/vibration motor and a stronger battery perhaps but I think it'll work.
Yup, I find time estimates to be very difficult for anything but routine tasks, especially now we've moved away from the big design upfront. But maybe we should estimate anyway and routinely revise our estimates, and bear in mind that estimates are just that -- estimates.

I suppose that gets points for being easily digestible, but it is also from a source that has knowingly lied to the public about covid safety in the past year (masks), it doesn't address any specific concerns related to the vaccine, and this document itself is obviously wrong. For example, it calls the vaccine a "a harmless piece" of mRNA when side-effects to the vaccine that are fairly considered harmful (fever, feeling bad, malaise, etc) are well documented and commonly known.

If they wanted to do a good job, the information should come from a trustworthy source, it should present the best arguments against the vaccine, and discuss the merits and lack thereof of those arguments. It should genuinely present the risks and the benefits and a good analysis of the tradeoffs. This document clearly falls well short.

You can't expect to convince people like this.

Acceleration isn't relative, velocity is. An object undergoes acceleration when a force is applied to it. Objects "know" when they are being accelerated, just like how you know you're being pulled down by gravity. The same can't be safe for velocity.

I'm part of a math one, where each individual goes through books in their interest with the guidance of a person who has a PhD. He checks our proofs for us, which is super useful when learning, and is constantly learning new math (and physics) himself. It's platformed in on Discord, though, as that's where we meet. Sadly, I dunno if we'd be able to recreate it if Discord were to close down tomorrow, though we're also all on Reddit.

>Of those who switched, over 70% lacked access to Level 2 charging at home, and slightly fewer than that lacked Level 2 connections at their workplace.

What in the... A Level 2 charger is less than $500 online, and requires some rather simple wiring, even if you wanted to use an electrician's services, it would only take them a couple of hours maximum. Can the people purchasing the $43,000 Mustang Mach-E mentioned in the article really not afford the extra $1000 it takes to install Level 2 charging?

A lot of folks in here in CA rent homes and apartments because the cost of living out here is so insane. You can't really get a 240V EV charger installed in your garage or driveway unless you own a home /w vehicle parking and can make such modifications. Having charging infrastructure nearby becomes very critical for anyone in this situation. Charging infrastructure has not kept up with the EVs that are now on the road.

A lot of folks also leased their EVs and got great deals on charging with the lease. As these leases have expired along with their charging discounts, it's not surprising that these folks are returning the cars and switching back to gas powered vehicles with better ROI.

More government incentives are needed to build charging infrastructure and make EV ownership more viable for people that don't own a single family home. Otherwise the EV revolution will be dead in the water.
We shouldn't be looking to Apple as our biased replacement for a government; they also, for example, pull apps that poke at how iPhones are made in sweatshops... that they occasionally move to do something someone finds valuable doesn't exonerate them or forgive how much power they have accumulated.

I don't get how the dev's gender factors into the story. Everyone of us have dealt with colleagues that don't handle criticism well and/or are poor performers. That your conclusion is that it is because she is a woman (don't call them girls) may indicate that you have some learning to do.

Upgrade the electrical feed from the utility.

Reroute other things near where you want to charge the car for safety reasons. (My gas meter is basically exactly where I'd want to put my charger).

Could we use stars like this as intergalactic vehicles!?

If (BIG if) we some how figure out how to launch a mass the size of a star or planet into an orbit around two galaxies. You could then launch your starship into its orbit around the apogee, ride the mass to the next galaxy, and de-orbit burn around perigee! In this way the orbit would practically be a store of energy as well.
This will sound pretty weird, but this person reminds me of a interesting character in the anime "Great Teacher Onizuka."

If they new her true power they might treat her with insincere deference.
