> Very much this. I find it necessary to make even the most simple and obvious connections explicit in group contexts.

This took me years, and I mean many years, to fully understand. I would say things like, "If we're doing X, shouldn't we also do Y? I mean, we need Y for Z...." which is not nearly as effective as, "If we are doing X, I think the expectation is that we will accomplish Z, but doing X will not accomplish Z."

Both statements say that if Z is desired, X will not suffice. But the scrum masters and project managers hear the first as "the engineers want something," which primes them to ignore you, and the second as "management expects something," which primes them to pay attention and process what you're saying.
How are they doing a better job?
I would really like to do some scientific computing in Raku. It has crossed my mind that I can maintain both Perl5 and Raku ports of some of the library code I'm writing. I just haven't worked through the tooling.
You are probably looking at price per home, not price per acre.

Because there are external costs. The “consenting adults” narrative is false. Not enough parking means people living there will use street parking in nearby areas affecting the residents of those communities. This happens all the time.
Not the parent, but upthread we're talking about density and zoning in cities, not in suburban or rural areas. I get that people who want to live in a suburban or rural environment have different priorities, and they're free to set building policy to achieve those goals.

But it feels like (in SF at least) we have people with conflicting goals: they want to live in a city, but they want their experience to be similar to suburbia.

I want to live in a city and for it to actually feel like an urban environment! I want to walk everywhere for my day-to-day needs, and take transit for everything else. I want to sell my car and rent one only for the times I want to leave the city. But we're in this weird middle state where that often doesn't work. My guess is that the only place in the US where it really does work is NYC, and then maybe even only really in Manhattan.
Please read the thread before commenting.
I feel perfectly safe using public transit. 36,120 people died in traffic in 2019 in the United States. When there isn't a pandemic going on and I'm getting the annual flu vaccine, I feel pretty darn safe compared to driving
I’d be a bit sceptical about this news item. The project seems to be in a real early stage and could even be shelved before it sees the day.

However, if it has to find its way out of Facebook’s garage and succeed; it will have to be an incredible feat of engineering to meet customer expectations. If the product decisions are driven purely from a data collection point of view, the success rate will be real low.

The email validation page is incorrect (possible due to being out of date). Apple Mail on iPhone can render embedded images just like Safari can. I use them in a few personal projects.
Thank you for doing it! We’ve been subscribers for a while now and it’s great.
You can use USB for both Sidecar and Universal Control, by the way.
Not really. Apple's cut would take 30% of the creator earnings. Of course, it would also take 30% of the app's earnings.

So instead of the creator getting $90 and the app getting $10 when someone pays $100 through Fanhouse, Apple gets $30, the app gets $7 and the creator gets $63.
Thanks for confirming that you have no clue about frontend development and it's up- and downsides while running around with a big mouth claiming competence.

You really are an extreme case of the dunning kruger effect in action.
I've never thought "fairness" to be a material concept in anything with money. I mean how could it be? Is it fair to tax people different amounts, or should everyone be taxed the same percentage? Or the same dollar amount? How can "fairness" as a concept ever be nailed down to be useful?
Now we just have to wait for Apple to add the reverse - control your Mac from your iPad :)

This could be pretty useful bc of the touch screen + pencil combo. Back in 2016 I spent a weekend mocking up an "iPad as a graphics tablet" app, and it was surprisingly easy and effective [0][1]. I'm sure Apple could do a lot better.

Yeah; I suppose you could look at it from the real analysis point of view! Terrible spec, basically.
>That's affirmative consent to anyone on the web reading the URL by visiting it.

No it's not. It means it's out there but the wishes of a person may still go contrary. That is perfectly fine and like in the above example, maybe you should give people options instead of taking them away.
> That's pretty interesting

It's also nonsense. The giant debt is coming from government borrow and spend of trillions and trillions of dollars, with more trillions being proposed.

The difference between corporate debt and government debt is corporate debt is backed by assets, which is not inflationary. Government debt is backed by nothing, hence it is inflationary.
I think that’s exactly the point the GP was making.
California's population expansion clearly hit a wall back in 2017-2018, pre-pandemic. 2019 saw their population expansion de facto stop. The rate of growth has been dropping rapidly toward zero for much of the past decade, and they reached that line before the pandemic hit, it's not a new trend due to Covid.

This decade it'll go negative. The exodus - a desperate flight from California's particularly horrible governments and epic mismanagement - will get worse yet, not better.

Fewer people want to live in California and it's very obvious why.

2010 to 2020, California saw a 6% population expansion. The slowest decade of population growth in a century for the state. Year to year, it went from very slow growth at the beginning, to zero by the end. Next is a contraction.

Texas by contrast saw 16% expansion in that time. It's booming and it's also very obvious why.
That's a nice business you got there. Shame if anything were to happen to it.
HN has a lot of ~40%ers who imagine that they will be 1%ers some day. "Temporarily embarrassed millionaires", as it were.

Actual 1%ers are substantially over-represented, but they are (by definition) a very tiny fraction of the overall public.
I played this all through class during sophmore year, then dropped it. Picked it up again last year on my bus commute and FINALLY beat Morgoth. Twenty years it took! I don't think I've ever been so satisfied to finish a game as with Angband.
> it breaks the UI paradigm to have to go to a different page to continue reading a subthread, and there would be strange consequences (e.g. if you click 'parent' to go to the parent subthread, then the 'more' links will switch to a different set of comments).

For what it's worth, I ran across this situation, and it felt very natural -- but only after adding the descendant count. I'd get curious about a subtree, click into "9 more", read it, see "2 more" on the last comment, and click again. It felt a bit like Numen in that sense.

The flip side of that is, I'm not sure anyone's going to bother writing a long, thoughtful reply after maxnest* depth. They'd have to really love writing for the sake of writing, since orders of magnitude fewer people will see their more'd reply.

But maybe that's a good thing. I don't have the experience to know. If you feel it's fine to change HN's social dynamics like that, you're probably right.

> If we went with the collapse UI for this, we'd have to lazyload the comments on uncollapse.

If this is all a performance concern, please, let me try to fix it somehow. I can work independently on it, and simulate the same number of page views that HN currently gets. I bet you a dollar that I can find a simple, overlooked solution.

I understand that's probably not an option, but email me at shawnpresser@gmail.com if you see a way.

(The reason I'm being persistent about this is, I hate accepting that Lisp can't scale. There must be a way. If there is, I'll find it; as someone whose replies will end up more'd or collapsed, I'm quite motivated to find you a third option.)

Note that my original bug report to you was correct, but initially you weren't sure what I was talking about. (I realized later that you were probably referring to the "more" links at the bottom of the page vs how many toplevel comments show up per page.) I suspect a lot of my past awkwardness with you was due to such miscommunications. I'm not sure why those happen. But all I can do is try to be clear and precise, and only say something when there is something worth saying.

Maybe someday when things settle down, you'll be able to release your HN browser extension. I'm really looking forward to it, whichever year it comes.

Good luck battling the performance beast.

You're the guy getting downvoted for acting like a child when everyone disagrees with you. I'm done here.
Obviously, there are drawbacks with the CCP (and Amazon), but I can tell you one damn thing for sure: those people would not have been lifted out of poverty under the socialist/communist regime of Mao. Under that regime, people were mocked and tortured for working harder than others and trying to innovate. Deng Xiaoping embraced free markets and their own flavor of capitalism to bring this net positive to China.
Nobody knows for sure but the rumours say it's been delayed due to a hold up in mini-LED displays. Probably will be something by September. But who knows?
If you give Dutch politicians the choice of speaking French or Dutch with translators in an international meeting they will use English.

But I don't think the French really care about how other cultures work. It's all nationalist nonsense and living in the glorious past for them. See Strasbourg.
Isn't it ironic that English is the Lingua Franca?
Oh, I was speaking for playit.gg, not sure about zerotier. I misread the comment thread.
It took me a while to understand if this was satire or not.

The fact that you have to manually install the CRX or the XPI extension package into Mozzila or Google Chrome doesn't help.

I don't see it as a "nationalistic flamewar" as much as "calling spade a spade".
I desperately want to wear one of those things on my head with the little turquoise ball sticking out of it
just saying that and getting angry doesnt make it true.

urban areas all boomed due to the roaring economy up until covid, especially powered by the large growth in the tech sector there and corporate tax cuts (and seattle's low state tax making it an attractive place to be locate). theres no evidence seattle magically helped everyone by raising minimum wages.

likely seattle did fine despite the minimum wage increase, not because of them. Especially since you have to pay that much to attract workers there anyway because of the insane living costs. Which partially ballooned due to artificial price controls like that. and theres no measuring how many people got their jobs automated away or didnt get hired because of the wage increases.

and seattle has also had an explosion of homelessness and violent crime.
By the way, Sci-Hub has stopped adding new articles to the database for a few months now (background: https://www.reddit.com/r/scihub/comments/mk46x4/scihub_v_els...).

It would be great to develop a truly decentralised solution. Having a database of individual torrent links for each paper might be a start.
IPFS would be a perfect fit for this...

It sadly isn't censorship resistant, but it should do for a few years, and as soon as censorship on IPFS starts to become an issue, hopefully the IPFS developers will evolve the design.
Because you hope that someone else is left holding the bag when this all comes crashing down.
Yeah it is. If what he claimed was even partially true, that some were collaborators, but obviously it was also people hoping for escape, it’s almost excusable (I guess deGaul did). But in such cold blood. It’s still repugnant, not to mention innocent people and children.

It’s one thing if you’re shooting bullets or launching lances or whatever at each other. There is no underhandedness. It’s plain and simple war. This is dark -even- if you give him some benefit of doubt, which I don’t, but if one did, even then, he was a very gruesome man.

I think he earned that guillotine.
Supply is also naturally restricted because there is only so much land in an area. Especially when we are talking about people interested in their own dwelling/home where building a condo just means they look elsewhere. People forget this basic fact a lot when talking about housing.
> It could be a difference of up to 0.9 seconds between GMT and UTC.

Not in this context. In the context of ASN.1, NTP, POSIX, etc, GMT is a timezone equivalent to UTC+00:00. UT1 and DUT1 don't figure into it.
I haven't been able to read the article (it won't let me sign up?!) but I think this is very interesting news - I wonder who they'll target, writers from 'mainstream' publishing or those having success on Royal Road/Kindle/Wattpad etc - or maybe both! Cool that they're targeting comics too, it just shows the variety of things you can do with an email
Makes for a great soundbite though. "We had no idea going in that stepping in front of this bus would hurt us."
The market is not a zero sum game. If mortgages were illegal, the same houses would just be more expensive overall, and effectively most would be living in smaller or worse homes as a result.

Indeed, it's mostly a non issue. There are so many translators working for EU institutions, that I don't see how it would change much.
Price of bitcoin * total block reward (new coins + fees)

The total value of the miner reward does increase with price, but because of halvings every 210,000 blocks it's a slower rate than the price increases on its own.

Note here, https://www.blockchain.com/charts/miners-revenue, that the current miner reward (in USD) is currently lower than it was at the peak of the 2017 bull run, despite the unit price being approximately double.
I am of an opinion that deflationary crypto (like Bitcoin) can not be used as currency. It should absolutely be used as a store of value (kind of like gold) and as a way to transfer value.

ETH is not deflationary and it is a good candidate to be used as currency.
Love this game. Also cataclysm dda
Yes, but recognizing it as a foreign currency would be a huge gain in legitimacy, which would seriously work against the author's stated goal of disrupting cryptocurrencies. Further, it's not enough to only require this for bitcoin, people would just jump to the next cryptocurrency. You'd essentially have to recognize all mined cryptocurrencies as valid foreign currencies (which would probably lead to a whole slew of complications) or significantly amend many existing laws to create some third category, which again goes against the author's "use existing laws to deal with bitcoin" approach. Of course once we get into this quagmire of trying to determine what exactly counts as a money transmission, there will be a whole host of financial institutions who will throw quite a bit of money at the prospect of creating new loopholes in existing regulations. All in all I would be very surprised if the author would desire the actual outcomes of their stated plan.
And you should... The proxy.pac file is in some cases reloaded for every single http request.
It doesn't refute it but sums up well the American political culture.
I'll give you the counterpoint. I'm very happy to spend money on apps and services that I like.

However, I'm only going to do it through Apple's platform, for a variety of reasons. If you don't want to build on Apple's platform, that's completely fine. I won't be a customer. And maybe that will change the system, I really don't know.

Those apps are not distributing content, I haven’t installed Fanhouse but from looking at their website it seems that you can consume the content you’re paying for through it.
They actually mentioned that they use 90 days as defined by 2160 hours, so that would be a non-issue.
Yes they had text to speech, but not as good as today, not nearly as robust, you had to train it. Google do also have on device speech transcription, for their own phones with neural engines. Their blog post points out that it's quite a resource intensive method of doing things.

Texas Republican asks: can we fix the moon’s orbit to fight climate change?
Good. We need as much battery capacity as possible. We need to overbuild it so batteries are super cheap and carmakers are begging customers to buy EVs.
Thanks for the concise explanation!
Yes! I've tried out way too many keyboards in the last few years and the Magic Keyboard is by far my favorite. I'm not as big of a fan of the trackpad but before this announcement I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how I could use the Magic Keyboard with my Mac Mini.
Sorry, I agree with it being relevant. I just meant that it was not what I found uninteresting.
First New Close-Up Picture of Jupiter’s Moon Ganymede in More Than 20 Years
Its the most French thing I've seen in a long time, and it make me inordinately happy.

The french political class: "It eez time to stick eet to ze germans and ze eengleesh"
"The most important reason meth makes your teeth fall out and ruins your life but Adderall just makes you study a little harder is that the meth users are taking 50x higher doses"

The reason meth addicts have bad teeth isn't because of the dosage of the drug. It's because stimulants make you want to eat candy and drink sugar water, because meth addicts lose track of oral hygiene in favor of doing meth or something else more interesting, and because they're smoking it (along with other drugs).
I've always said that the most productive use of the state in response to bitcoin is by helping make better UX, protocols, optional smart contracts for industries (no different than little stickers on plastic bottles or electronics, but way more useful for builders and consumers alike).

This is a great step in that direction.
Well, Google charges 30%. Microsoft (for the XBox, not sure about their store) 30%. Sony (PS4) 30%. Steam was 30%, but this is dropping. Nintendo's is well protected by NDAs, but reportedly 15-30%.

30% is pretty close to a standard when you're providing the storefront and control the hardware.
Appreciated the blog post, I found it very handy in understanding the tracking activities.

Looking forward to more!

In Arabic there are 12 levels of friendship
Bitcoin has a scripting language that allows more complex requirements to unlock funds, rather than simply sending an amount from one key to another:

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script

Multisignature requires a quorum k-of-n signatures to unlock funds, for example 3 of 5 keys (or 2-of-3, 2-of-2, etc):

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Multi-signature

So you can have a wallet that requires 2 signatures to move funds, where you control 2 signing devices (mobile app + hardware wallet) and the third-party holds the 3rd key. Normally you manage all transfers without involvement of the third party, but if one of your keys becomes inaccessible they can help you sweep your funds to a new set of keys.

Additional resiliency and security is gained by increasing the quorum to 3-of-5. You control a mobile app plus 3 hardware signing devices, which are ideally distributed geographically. This increases reliability in case something happens at your primary site (like your house) and increases security by requiring an attacker to physically visit multiple locations. The 5th key is held by the recovery service.

tl;dr: https://keys.casa/how-it-works
It looks even worse outside of Western Europe. Bulgaria, Hungary, and Lithuania are more like 1 or 2% francophone, but at least 1/5 anglophone.

I'm no expert on international politics, but it seems like that would severely disadvantage these countries, wouldn't it? With a smaller pool of politicians and technocrats who are proficient in the working language of the EU, they'll have to rely more on translation, and will consequently be less able to communicate efficiently when representing their respective countries.
This is just a nationalist policy. Even the French don't think it's actually practical. It's just "see, France can push other countries around too".
Apple is just milking people at this point. Their devices are subpar for the cost and customer treatment is sometimes even worse.
So Netflix?
Truly an exemplary level of delusion. I marvel that people are able to function day to day in society while having deeply held views that are so divorced from reality.
It may be in some areas, not in others - depending on how their tax system works. Prop 13(which has massive flaws and abuses) in CA is an example, as well as states which just generally have low property tax rates because they derive their revenue from other sources like income tax.
