No one mentions custom ear plugs on that thread.

They are pricey, but such a good investment. Way better than anything else I've tried, more comfortable for extended periods of use and most importantly they attenuate the sound fairly evenly across the spectrum.

My only advice is to get the string attachment option, so that you can't accidentally lose one of them!
Yep... didn't read past the headline of the article.
Sometime in the future, people will stop belittling crypto currencies when they realize that the digitization concepts of traditional finance technology providers are inferior to those of crypto currencies and blockchains. Putting safety and security first for anything that handles money makes sense.

The calls for "you don't need a blockchain, just use a database" will become less and less.

Edit: Of course, Hacker News hates this comment.
You can get an invoice that you will pay later. Thus, you don't need to look for your credit card at the time of the purchase.

I might be able to point you to the right people for legal. I'm running companies in DE and US, doing a research cooperation with German universities and I've been to Brussels as part of the KnowARC EU project for building research cloud infrastructure.

There was that time that Dropbox let you log in to any account with any password, too.

I've never run a line of Dropbox code on any machine I own since that day. Even if you have no tests whatsoever on your app, you should have some basic smoke tests on your auth system.
The "least evil tax" probably comes from Milton Friedman, who called land tax the "least bad tax".

Owner-occupiers do pay land tax in Australia — local council rates are effectively land taxes as they are based on the unimproved value of the land (but they often include stormwater and waste charges as well).

I disagree with the sibling comments: regular expressions should still be about regular languages. It's not because Larry Wall committed yet another atrocity that we should all follow him off the cliff. Perl can keep its monster.

However, that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive for richer feature (within the confine of regularity), or that a parsing library automatically does the job better.

For instance: intersection and complement are regular operators that works very well in regular expressions. lookahead is a regular operator (lookbehind and backreferences are not), etc. Those operators do not necessarily work at all in richer parsing libraries. When added to regular expressions, they should be well handled and optimized by regex engines (which is is currently not the case).
There's still work to do, features to add, which require appropriate testing techniques.
In principle I agree, but you can be tricked into using Klarna. However, in Europe you should be able to cancel the order without reasons.
I tend to avoid plugins for things that I can just do myself with a few keybindings or autocmds. I like that aspect of Vim (and Emacs) where the user is less reliant on plugins because there isn't really a clear, fixed boundary between configuration, scripting and external extensions. Though it comes with downsides (e.g. when plugin developers make the questionable decision of overriding user configuration).

> > it enhances the ability to reason about code

> In your opinion.

Correct. But my opinion is informed by years of experience with functional programming, procedural programming, and OOP (each).

> Please provide any evidence that this is true, especially the ‘safe’ part. Any study I’ve read says there’s almost no effect on language choice at all on bug rate.

Sure, here is a paper which provides the evidence you're looking for: "A Large Scale Study of Programming Languages
and Code Quality in Github" (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2635868.2635922). That paper concludes:

> The data indicates functional languages are better than procedural languages; it suggests that strong typing is better than weak typing; that static typing is better than dynamic; and that managed memory usage is better than unmanaged.

I personally don't trust academic studies on programming language effectiveness, since they often contradict each other (e.g., https://arxiv.org/abs/1901.10220 contradicts the paper I cited above). But if you're looking for a peer-reviewed paper, there you go.

Choosing the right paradigm absolutely has an effect on the bug rate. If you have to write more code, repeat code, or deal with low-level details irrelevant to the problem at hand, you are going to make more mistakes. On top of that, functional languages often have better type systems than procedural/OOP ones, which helps with bug catching that much more. Taking this to extreme, with dependent type systems you can actually verify arbitrary mathematical properties of your programs.

How much experience do you have with functional programming? I have professional and academic experience with both functional programming and OOP, and everyone I've met with that experience agrees about the trade-offs I've been discussing in my comments.

My email includes a common Swedish first name so I regularly have people mistakenly use my email address for Klarna orders. What’s most annoying/troubling is that, at least last time I checked, they don’t verify an address before sending invoices, etc. so I end up with other people’s order info in my inbox. I finally started unsubscribing from notifications for orders that weren’t mine.

> True if you include Slavs who died on the battlefield

This isn’t true. Out of six milions Poles who perished during WW2 most were non-combatants. Largest causualties in single battle (Budziszyn) costed Polish c.a. 50 thousand soldiers. And there were not that many battles for Polish armies…

Yes the persecution of Slavs were more random but numbers far larger..

Around 6 million Polish citizens perished during World War II: about one fifth of the pre-war population.[1] Most were civilian victims of the war crimes and crimes against humanity during the occupation by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.[]

I doubt that such stigma will be very widespread. There's been a renewed focus within the society to focus on digital well-being, screen time, and general mental wellness connected to the overuse of social media platforms and smartphones. People will try this feature just out of curiosity, and be able to tell their peers about non-social standing related reasons for why it's useful.
Tangential conversation is similar to orthogonal thoughts, leveraging the intersectionality of ideas to spark new ones, often leading to innovative or creative directions of discussion. I wonder how well correlated those thought habits are with innovation in the technology space in general?
Klarna is really shady. It encourages a 'buy now, pay later' mentality, which may be convenient right there and then, but it creates an unhealthy style of shopping:

https://www.theguardian.com/money/2018/nov/17/klarna-buy-now...

It's Payday Loans 2.0.

It's really disturbing to see Klarna as a payment option in many Dutch online shops. These always already have iDEAL (which the vast majority of customers use), a convenient way of doing an electronic bank transfer; and most shops support credit cards too.
Yes, absolutely! I think there's plenty of blame to go around. But I see all too often flippant takes like "20 companies cause (a large X)% of greenhouse gas emissions" which just completely ignores demand.

I enjoyed that, it was quite a bit nicer.
In C# for instance. If you mark a field static it is the same for all instances of a class (if you don't mark the code as thread static). So if you have static User field that changes on logon it will change for everyone. I have seen this but typically more complicated versions of it.
Ok, so around 20 years ago we were fine with 56k, what do you think we need in another 20 years? Unless you wanna put down new lines every handful of years this is actually a good investment into the future.
This is a good cautionary lesson. Problems like collusion rings in computer science are more serious than they appear. If left unchecked for a decade or two, the cheaters will rise to the top and take the positions of power in the field, and then it's going to be almost impossible to fix the system.

Relying on altruistic tendencies for people in academia is not adequate. Everyone starts out in academics as school children, and get filtered out or filter themselves out pursuing other things. Those who remain will be the ones who love to learn and teach, those who just cannot accept loss/failure, and, sadly, those who are afraid of change. The more competitive the field becomes, the harder it is to succeed, the more we select for the hyper-competitive or fearful over the altruistic.

I am not here to shit on Emacs -- I recognize that I am not its audience. Took me a long time because I was in denial but eventually I figured it out.

But I get Elisp warnings and errors every day. And mind you, I did abandon my monstrous init file a year ago and just yielded to Spacemacs with very minimal changes like font, cursor customization et. al. -- basically just 7-8 of these. It has a ton of stuff in it though. Spacemacs isn't a lightweight Emacs. Being on macOS might be another thing, too, I don't know.

Even with that, there is trouble on a regular basis. I would think an all-in-one package deal would have better debugging and proper care but oh well. :(

Again, not here to degrade Emacs itself, I am only here to share that the amount of effort I am willing to invest to maintain my local installation is apparently not enough to have a well-running editor, and that I will be giving up on it because of that.

Recently I did what’s called the ‘big 3’ upgrade on my car’s wiring. You replace the oem wiring from your alternator, etc. with 1/0 gauge cable, thus allowing substantially more power through. This is for speakers. I made my own cables and was in the process of upsizing one of the battery lugs by drilling the hole bigger on a drill press. I was just holding the wire steady with my left hand while pulling the drill handle down with my right. The drill bit caught and spun the cable around, including somehow my hand in it, winding my hand up in the cable very tight against the still spinning drill. It’s a small drill press and didn’t have enough torque to keep spinning, but had the drill been stronger I’d have at least broken my hand if not worse. As it was my hand was swollen and scratched pretty good. When you make your living typing this really makes you think.
Not OP but SDA union is - by numbers - one of the largest unions in Australia but is not well known for protecting its members (mostly retail workers).
I will try to address these:

1. Space gets eaten up very quickly if you have media assets. I've had clients with 30GB of media assets in a month. It once crashed a hosting company's file system it was so big.

2. People pay thousands. It is being used by some of the largest companies in the world and largest websites. Most people, of course, don't need to spend that though.

3. It's logging in a user, you have to hit the database to check credentials.

4. WordPress is powering 40% of websites out there right now? It makes sense.

5. I didn't dig further into it, but it was interesting to see those results

If your economy cannot produce all the products consumers consume then you need to encourage saving.

If the economy cannot consume all the products the suppliers produce you need to encourage consumption.

If you perfectly hit the balance (unlikely but in theory possible) then you need to do... nothing, neither savings nor consumption increases.

It depends on what your economy needs.

Why are you comparing pkgsrc to pacman. The orginal comparison suggested in the parent comment was between xbps and nixpkgs or other Linux package managers.

pkgsrc boostraps itself using a program called "boostrap" in the pkgsrc directory. It builds a version of NetBSD's GCC toolchain and has no reliance on the host's userland. IME, this is very reliable and is its single greatest strength. Beyond that, pkgsrc is only as good as the build processes chosen by the author(s) of the software being built. These of course vary widely in sanity and depending on the packages one is building the otherwsise sane pkgsrc build process can quickly become a black box with packages that pull in many dependencies. It does break sometimes, but this is a fault of the target software authors, not pkgsrc. pkgsrc is first and foremost a system for building packages.
Linux distributions OTOH tend to be much more focused on binary package managers. Most Linux users do not build packages from source. There is really no comparison.

Your comments do not sound like those of a daily NetBSD user. I have been one for the last 15 years and am therefore all too familiar /usr/share/mk. Most Linux users do not seem very comfortable with BSD makefiles.

Out of curiosity, how is that enforcement usually done? I have usually just used some SQL database like MySQL/Postgres, and having application determine how to fetch data, so application has access to everything. I can see how this could be insecure due to some bug in application code fetching with wrong WHERE etc, how would one go about enforcing it on sql/database layer?

Would you have separate SQL credentials for each user, and configure SQL for each credential to have access to certain WHERE queries, or?

To simplify a use-case let's say I have "users" table and "tasks" table, where there's user_id in "tasks". Would I have separate sql credentials where they are configured in sql layer to have access to only rows where user_id corresponds to this certain credential? But even then how are credentials mapped to userId, as bug in application could easily cause retrieving false credentials?

Other way I can think of is to just have completely separate databases for each user, but let's in this case assume we must often do work with a mix of different users data.
This is a good question, but it should be an Ask HN post.

At pre-seed, you have no revenue. Your main goals are to develop your product or service to the point that it is demonstrable, and to gather as much research and feedback as you can about about the customer and what they find valuable.

Your KPIs should be tailored to meet these goals. It really depends on the product or service. You could track meetings, or survey results, or interest/click-through to a landing page, or email addresses, etc.

There are tons of resources out there. Read, read, read.

Pick KPIs most relevant to motivating you and your team toward your goals. If you do, then angel investors will be impressed.
Uber has only very limited control over which union gets to represent workers (not in the UK anyway), so if toothless unions ends up representing people, that is because those are the unions their workers choose.
The point of the paper is that the satellite data may be being misinterpreted.

Satellites do not measure sea surface or tropospheric air temperatures. They measure some voltage variations from sensors that are affected by various frequencies of electromagnetic radiation and, when integrated with location and orientation data, generate a data product that needs interpretation by experts in a way that may or may not correlate with actual sea surface or tropospheric temperature.

The article is pointing at some inconsistencies in some, but not all, satellite data products. It's not quite saying "if the observations do not fit the theory, the observations are wrong" so much as "if the interpretation of the observations do not fit the theory, the interpretation of the observations may be wrong".
