Making it a distinct category also means that both advertisers and viewers can AVOID the content easily.
I'm not who you're responding to, and obviously the commenter should have said "some" non-English speakers rather than "all".

But the main point is still obvious and true: how would you like it if another country was a dominant technological power and we all had to re-learn to read and write English backwards precisely like that to use computers?

No need to get snarky about it. Comments like "maybe educate yourself a little" are against HN guidelines. [1]

Also, Korean is different because the characters represent entire syllables, so legibility isn't impaired as much by direction. CJK scripts have historically been flexible in direction in a way that Latin scripts never have been.

A lot of advice depends on what you want to do and where you are at in life. If you have meager savings, then taking a year off might be a bad idea, but taking a few months might be do-able. If your 401k and bank accounts are flush then you have a lot more wiggle room. Some additional thoughts:

- It goes by fast. If you have a long list of things you want to do during that time, I would make sure to prioritize. If you just want to relax, that is fine too.

- Unless you are really in a bad spot in terms of finances, it is unlikely that you will regret taking the time off.

- Don't worry about the gap in your resume. Anyone who cares about that is likely not someone you want to work for.

- Optional, but think about ways to make the break work in your favor. I used some of the time to learn a new programming language, and the subsequent pay bump that I got after returning to work more than paid for the time off. As another hypothetical example, If you were hoping to cut loose and travel during your time off, and if you are currently working remote due to COVID. You could move out of your apartment now and get a jump start on the traveling, while still collecting a few more paychecks.
At least the Lightning name makes sense for an electric vehicle, even though it does not have much to do with the original Lightning.

If miners are largely irrelevant, why is the technologically inferior blockchain called Bitcoin, the superior one called Bitcoin Cash? Why do people pay outrageous fees on the Bitcoin chain and why is a Bitcoin unit worth 20x more than Bitcoin Cash? Why does every proposal without miner majority support fail? Why is Bitcoin called the most secure blockchain?

I think that's the dividing line - each person decides if it's worth it to learn something new. For example, some people love foreign media so much that they trade fansubs of said media or even learn the language so they can watch.

Someone who wants to program computers will most likely learn functional English, just because of how much content on that subject is in English (the "lingua franca" of computers).

But someone in Mongolia who wants to text his mom has no inclination to learn a whole new language just to handle the limitations of ASCII. And if you want to sell him a phone you'll meet him where he is.

(This doesn't even begin to touch the "it's not fair" aspect that people like to point at.)

I think the idea is to try to catch it in the act. The LAPD is notorious for being slow. I was in a hit and run accident where my car was completely totaled and I was in a daze and it took them an hour to come and I'm pretty sure the only reason they actually came was because a bystander was mad and claimed there was injuries after waiting with me for a while. If they wont' come to an accident in a good time, I doubt they come to a break in. lol

I've grown very cynical of the source/intention of any news I encounter. Ad revenue or shifting political opinion in their favor would be the reason to stir the pot.

Not every new institution created by the govt gets posted on Hacker News and the verbage in the headline triggered red flags for me. As a conservative, it would make me concerned over government surveillance possibly targeting me. As a liberal, it would make me concerned over the presence of domestic extremists. So I was trying to gauge how I should feel about this story, whether 'ramping up' means creating a new NSA, or forming a volunteer committee that meets once/week.
The main thing is these are not "hot tubs" they are indoors, in a normal room, an apartment, in a kiddies play pool, with kiddies inflatable equipment. The water is, additionally, cold and a few inches deep. No-one in the world does this type of activity privately or in public.

It's so obviously soft core pornography and way away from the sensible "appropriate behaviour and clothing rules" that it's absurd.

Now there is the debate about sexuality and sex work. This is not applicable here. Amazon's Twitch is saying it's not sex work. One sure fire thought experiment is that, if it's not porn, would you be okay with a 13 yr old (the age limit on twitch) doing it?

To give credit to Amazon's Twitch they are dammned whatever they do.
Yes, reading the article it seems like she designed the appearance of the computer. That's not what I imagined when I read "supercomputer designer".

It's a weird thing to mislead about too. Steve Jobs was obsessed with design, so inspiring him with your industrial design is not less impressive.
We don't support editing code in FlutterFlow atm. But this is something we want to enable.

Not an option, Amazon doesn't want to own a porn company.
Earth will be uninhabitable not long into the future on an evolutionary timescale. Without action from humans, oceans will boil away within 1 billion years due to the increasing brightness of the sun, and most life will likely die off within about half of that. So in some sense, the suffering of animals will not be for much longer compared to history.

Humans will need to either learn to:

- Terraform the Earth and keep it cool -- this can keep the Earth habitable for maybe 1-2 billion years at most instead of a few hundred million which is the current expectation. After that it will be of no use and the sun will eventually engulf the Earth in ~4 billion

- Not rely on other species or the oceans to survive, and find artificial ways to manufacture food

- Evolve into (i.e. develop) an intelligent but inorganic life form that can withstand higher temperatures and carry on the legacy of intelligent civilization

- Move to Mars or beyond, terraform it, and take animals with us

Considering the complex inter-dependencies of various species (e.g. humans need to eat plants, plants need insects and worms but their numbers are kept in check by birds, birds need huge plants to reproduce, plants also need to eat shit from animals, animals need yet other plants to make said shit, etc.) I have most hope in creating an inorganic lifeform that can reproduce given only light and raw materials available on planets, and without dependence on other life forms.

wiki entry shows it's not very well defined. However there is a mention of "Title 22 Chapter 38, of the U.S. Code as "premeditated, politically motivated violence.."

I'm not sure that is well defined either - Is 'assault by intimidation' violence? People yelling at you / over you while you eat? Spitting? Throwing objects at buildings?

By that definition the person running over people with his car was likely not 'premeditated' - so it's outside of that.
(imho - ianal etc)

Is threatening violence outside the definition?

adding to the gp? comment - the article does say in a couple places things like:
"Biden’s top appointees have called white supremacists the greatest security threat to the country and are pushing for bolstered intelligence gathering."
"“These programs almost always end up targeting Black and brown communities,” Ayoub said. He added: “It does seem that the focus...will be on white supremacy.”"

other things in the article seem to indicate that this is being created to have a focus on getting data about (extremist?) white people primarily - so I think the mention of "defined as anything outside the center left/right consensus of washington" is pretty accurate.

It's been said that previous intel collecting on 'domestic terror' stuff has been focused on black/brown people (in the article) - but I'm not sure antifa info gathering qualifies as that - maybe they are referring to after 911 the NY stuff -

Whichever situations they are referring to - it does appear that the big gov as a whole is and has been directed to use it's powers to collect info regarding those who sip info from watering holes that 'anything outside the center left/right consensus'

And that may be more of a testament to the tech algos of recent years actually - before social media it was rare to have hundreds of thousands being “who may be radicalizing, or have radicalized, to violence.” (DHS) - with today's tech you don't have to meet at some secret hideout to talk about hurting people because you don't like their agenda - now you have fang-like that can get groups together to hate by the thousands per minute.

Good on the aclu for once mentioning “The reality is that the federal government already has more than sufficient authority to investigate and prosecute white supremacist violence.”

So it's gotta make one wonder - it really seems like they are setting up new fed groups to train other fed and local groups to find dirt on non-centrist 'others' specifically - and it seems they are focused on what they call extreme right wing.

personally I don't see right wing / left wing - if you incite violence and destruction / intimidation it's just wrong. So is sending agents out to create drama for PR points on specific groups to make your tribe feel some type of way.. but that's been ongoing for a long time it seems - and strange to see so many okay (or just burying their head in the sand) with that, and many happily pushing for more.

You say that like there isn't already a massive amount of adult live streaming sites. They led the way!
1) The Jan. 6 protesters were invited into the Capitol building by Capitol police, and none had weapons. Of the 5 people who died, 4 died of natural causes and one was shot by Capitol police while entering a window.

When you have a rally with 500,000 attendees and no extra security, it will probably look like a riot. (Pelosi was responsible for approving additional security.)

2) In 2018, Democratic protesters also entered the Capitol. There are photos in the MSM. I can't tell from the photos whether they were from 2018 or 2021.
You're missing the point of Twitch and also its culture. Twitch is closer to cable TV than anything else, even the terminology is the same, with 'channels'. Except that anyone can create a channel and stream it within the rules. The fact that there's some content you don't like on other channels being does not mean you shouldn't watch the streamers that you like.

Just like there's a wide variety in content thats broadcast on TV channels at different times of the day. There is even a Science and Technology channel with some developers streaming their coding. There are some game developers that only code their game while streaming the IDE.

Here's Stephen Wolfram streaming right now. https://www.twitch.tv/stephen_wolfram

Why should a Wolfram viewer care if there is some risque content on other categories? Even if you're looking around after the stream, you can just scroll past it like you do on Netflix.

I personally mostly watch only the few streamers that I have followed. I rarely come across the streamers mentioned in the article except when there's some Twitch drama that I hear about on Reddit or from friends.
> can easily rent any kind of car/truck/van

This works when you're the outlier. If we are ever successful in making cars the exception rather than the rule, it will be far more difficult to just go rent one on demand.
>Other women on the platform have complained about their audiences pressuring them into producing similar content.

I'm not at all in touch with twitch stuff, so I'm just reading about this now. That's horrible. Would making stricter bans help?
It's relevant because it makes it clear what their intent is: To advertise their porn through twitch, half the audience of which is underage.
It's the same reason some casual nudity subreddits banned people with onlyfans from posting, they infiltrate communities with the single purpose of getting customers.
when employees at facebook or google push back against the bad parts of the business, that's an encouraging sign because it might cause the company to focus more on the good parts of their business.

when the employees at a company that only exists for the sake of authoritarian bullshit start pushing back, it's not really encouraging in the same way, because Citizen has no "good part of the business" to shift to.

I don't have internal info so this is just an hypothesis, but I think they absolutely do expect adversarial commits and if you tried to get something accepted today with no affiliation or anything you would need to talk to multiple maintainers and your commits would be under scrutiny.

Here the "contributors" had done multiple commits and were coming from a university that had previously upstreamed several commits. There was and should be an expectation of trust because you can't scrutinize every commit for several hours (they just don't have them enough maintainers for it).
I didn't say that there aren't other viruses that cause colds that can be spread by fomites. I said that:

1) There isn't a single virus called "the cold virus"

2) In addition to SARS-CoV-2, there are other viruses that cause cold-like symptoms that are not spread by fomites.

Your comment gave the impression that there's a single "cold virus" for which fomite transmission is the primary vector. That's not so. There are a bunch of viruses (in fact a bunch of families of viruses) bunch that cause cold symptoms, and only a few of them are commonly spread by fomites. None of the five endemic coronaviruses are known to be among these, nor is influenza.

Also, even though the CDC appears to be correct to my eyes in this case, I urge that, after the disastrous departure from anything resembling science in the past year and a half, we stop regarding it as a credible source.
Definitely a possibility, as it not a route I've tried. As I mentioned I'm terrible at marketing and sales ;).

My own experience working in a digital agency was pretty much the same though. If a client was sued or received a demand letter, they came to us asking about accessibility. When we brought it to the client, they often just saw it as us trying to upsell them.

In the end, we just shot for WCAG AA on everything whether the client asked for it or not and built the additional testing into our costs.
I appreciate your viewpoint, but I want to push back on "this just happens in cities". The only other place I experienced this level of criminality was when I was living in South America. (And I'm certainly not saying SF is much better.)

I'm originally from Europe, and have lived in and visited a huge variety of cities around the world. This level of anti-social behaviour / criminality is not normal, or acceptable in most developed countries.
That is the same category. People who will call private security in your friend or family don't mind violence that much.

And in case you are the one calling, you don't need private security as much as private mental health professional. Because that knowledge and exlerience of mental health crisis comes with being mental health professional - not with security.

>...because the existing and established ones have something unique to offer and to copy that would be an enormous (and slow) undertaking

Exactly. That's also the case for cryptocurrencies. You can instantly fork a cryptocurrency or a blockchain, but you're essentially copying a blueprint. You can copy Manhattan's city layout as a blueprint or other written/drawn representation, but you still need actual builders and resources to copy the physical structures, just like you need miners, mining rigs, and users to build an alternative to Bitcoin that has any value.

Assuming the same PoW algorithm, you'd need your alternative to exist for as many years as Bitcoin does to achieve the same blockchain length, for example, with a lot of distributed miners to achieve similar security guarantees.

You can create a Hacker News clone pretty quickly. (For the sake of argument, let's say you could do it in a day by forking an open source repo.) It doesn't mean your clone instantly devalues Hacker News.

Maybe if you grow your clone's community over years and it generates a lot of interesting discussions, people will use both, and maybe if eventually the discussions become more frequent and have higher signal:noise than HN's, HN activity may gradually decline as people decide to use your site more than HN. But this is about community and network effects, which you can't copy overnight. You have to build them over time.
