Can't speak to the veracity of it, and might've paraphrased or misremembered a bit, but it definitely stayed with me.
Why you gotta make this a gender thing?
> The fact is that we are inclined to judge women harshly for actions which would hardly seem remarkable for, say, a male rock star.

I don't think this is true. Walk-out dads are judged very harshly by our culture too.
But the rant isn’t really about the inanimate object. It’s about the author, and it implies a story and paints a character. If there’s a coffee table in a bad place in my office, and I bang my shins into it every morning, there’s a dramatic persona I’m expressing as the person who’s angry at the coffee table. It’s not really about the coffee table - it’s about my relationship. And that’s a strong point of view, and it’s comedic and entertaining because of the strong commitment to that perspective that to everyone else might seem silly and bizarre. It implies a narrative of this person’s commitment to die on the hill of hating linux’s dynamic linking behaviour.

Essentially a lot of criticism of the original article seems to be of the form of “reading strong, angry opinions like this make me feel insecure so please don’t do that”. And that might be a good reason to avoid writing like that. But tone policing, and insisting on emotionally desaturated writing has a cost for the reader and the writer. I think it makes us smaller. And it keeps us in our heads rather than in our hearts. That’s just not the way I want to live my life.
I will never forget the moment I first dialed into Clubhouse. It seemed like magic, even though it was "just" like a phone conference back in the old days. But this time, with amazing people from around the world. I felt thrilled. I felt like this was the start of something new. Something big.

However, I sobered up quickly. I think, for me, the main reason was that the app got flooded with annoying people. "Influencers", who love nothing more than themselves, seemed to be in control. And there was no real way to meet interesting people. I turned off the notifications first, and then I stopped looking at the app altogether.
> Wait, is this supposed to be a secret, ancient Babylonian/Indian method of finding the square root? When I was a child, this is how I was told it was done (by hand).

I'm not sure that I can find that interpretation from the article. Can you tell me more? I saw it more as trying to decode and understand the mindset of a culture far removed by what they left behind.
It probably can't because 23andme only scans for a tiny tiny percentage of your genome. Novel research is unlikely to match their selection.
I assume you’re not in a violent criminal gang in your country. If you were in America and continue to not be in a violent criminal gang then your numbers don’t hold up nearly as well. Its even smaller chances if you’re not related to a gang member, and smaller yet if you don’t live in gang neighborhoods, which I assure you are not hard to determine. It’s easy to overblow the concerns if you don’t factor that in your calculations.
Just to clarify, it wasn't hidden - it was known to be there. The issue is them accessing it from a monitor within the hall to the dugout.
Fuchsia is designed with real time tasks in mind. The scheduler operates both fair scheduling algorithm as well as a deadline scheduling algorithm. The audio subsystem has it's threads scheduled using the deadline constraints. The official docs seems to be missing some content on this unfortunately. https://fuchsia.dev/reference/fidl/fuchsia.scheduler?hl=en#P... describes the API which provides the deadline scheduling capability.
Do you think it’s become harder to do that in the recent era? Are things like a filter app still taking off like IG did?

Any examples?

I have not seen any cutting edge tech for while.
The typeface was familiar to me as a child even before Comic Sans came out as it is based on a lot of the writing in comic strips.
Thanks for the response, I appreciate it!
In the past senior people at major companies that were competitors entered into agreements not to poach staff from each other.

I have seen this happen to a colleague who tried to leave for a competitor. His manager at his current job found out, contacted their counterpart at the competitor and got the job offer rescinded. Needless to say, my colleague was extremely pissed off and ended up exiting to a non-competitor as soon as possible.

Also I used to work at a consultancy. The unwritten rule was that clients would not try to hire any of the consultants directly, especially if they had been seconded in to the client for an extended period. If a consultant applied for an advertised position, it wouldn't be blocked but would be frowned on and cause tension for the client with the consultancy (usually an increase in rates).
I think it's past the research chemical stage, but, yes, it's somewhat similar to benzodiazepines and I strongly recommend people not take it or any other GABAergic often. I'd very strongly recommend people not try to take phenibut to improve sleep.

This is why I was merely giving an anecdote of what it feels like when I'm very well-rested rather than suggesting a solution, and why I didn't want to name the substance in my anecdote. I'm still struggling with sleep quality. If I could just take a lot of phenibut all the time, I wouldn't have an issue, but I know I really shouldn't take it often, so I don't. (In part because I know I'd have an issue again once tolerance builds, in addition to some new issues.)

(Personally, weed makes it much, much harder for me to sleep.)

Google marks business on race and sex so I feel like reviews have officially become political.

I guess Google isn't lying (Not sure how they measure your blackness) and these reviewers perhaps are, so that's a difference. I guess if you are honest and say it's one star for their policy then it's a fair review under the new rules.

WHO is still against discrimination based on Covid vaccine passports I believe.
What you're trying to say is Muslim immigrants have trouble integrating in secular European society.

But that has been a problem with immigration for years. In Australia in the 50s/60s the same thing was said about Italians and other post-war immigrants.

The first generation works hard and busts their ass to get their kids a good education and into professions and business. They also have more of the attitudes of the society they left (conservative etc).

The second and then third generation adopt their local society's attitude. This leads to inter-generational clashes.

Radical propaganda leads to radicalization to the same endpoint, whether Islamist or Christianist or (in Israel for example) Judaist, or in India, Hinduist.

That radicalization is what is causing the current lack of assimilation. It is dangerous because it is driven by having an in group and an out group. It doesn't matter which religion it is, the radicalization, the precepts (male domination, female subjugation, attacking non-cis genders, non-hetero sexuality etc) are all the same.

We are well past the tip of the hype cycle for Clubhouse and it still can't keep up with the hype, competitors and its own growth. Everyone has copied them and left them in the dust.

After 4 months of asking this question [3], I am still unconvinced as to why Clubhouse is worth $4B.

> If there is a group that is a dominant political power, it's the same thing

The problem is to assume that dominant political actors cohere to constitute a group, a conspiratorial evil one at that. Hypotheses of evil conspirators played out so many times throughout history and it never ended well.

We all have a not-so-high-precision heuristic of detecting agency, therefore we sometimes ascribe agency where there is none. This unchecked unfortunately leads to Gnosticism-like belief structures where there are assumed demi-gods and demi-demons playing over us. Proof is any news feed, which will deify or demonize the character-du-jour. (And to be consistent, I am not making media into another conspiratorial force; if we are watching news like that it is only because we've been showing demand for it.)
re:localapi: Are these httpd instances? If so, are they run on-demand or are always running? Curious how this plays out on mobile devices with regards to power consumption?

None of those zeros are significant figures.
If you want an open version, ZeroTier provides a similar kind of seamless networking setup. I'm sure someone will implement an alternative to taildrop on top of it.

This is an issue which is part of the problem.

Whether it's cool or not,
Product placement is very common practice in retail.
Also Spotify has similar tools to promote music.

The problem always comes back to the main issue,
You got a platform where you have only one monopolistic way of use.

While people can complaint about Google. you're allowed to install you apps. only if you'd like to use Google's services (location, In-App-Purchase, etc) you need to use the Google Play.

With Apple not only I need to pay 99$ just to put an app with one year certificate (signed by Apple) on my device.

Thanks for your link about a NASA administrator saying "the shuttle was a mistake". As someone who was a pre-teen during the Apollo area, this warms my heart.

However, even is Saturn V was an extraordinary engineering feat, to explore space we needed something much less expensive, much less polluting, much more secure.

Perhaps SpaceX fills better this niche, but I hope that we simply become a space species with most jobs and people at least in orbit around Earth or Moon.

MacOS, iOS, and Linux clients can use your native OS updates. Windows needs to be updated by hand or with something like chocolatey or MDM. But more importantly, we have a policy of not breaking old clients if we can possibly avoid it. So far we have never deprecated old clients. We extend our protocols in a backward compatible way, because unilaterally breaking your network infrastructure… really sucks.

The way tailscale networks (tailnets) work is probably not how you’re used to thinking about them. Each node has its own view of the world, based on which nodes and services are shared with it in particular. We have security policy settings per domain, and a node sharing UI that lets you share any of your devices with anyone else.

The default model is that all devices belonging to someone in the same domain, say tailscale.com, can see each other. But we’re working on making that even more flexible since it doesn’t always do what you want for huge orgs (like universities).

You realize there's a whole religious backdrop to this as well right? She seems like a faithful Catholic. If here children are as well, then they probably see nothing wrong with this. It's not about not wanting to see them, it's about wanting to live your calling more. It's like the Sound of Music, when Mother Superior tells Maria that loving Captain Von Trapp does not mean loving God less, but in reverse.

voice is it? What software is grinding away, scanning
gigabytes, while we, our mainstream selves, are otherwise
occupied?"

I tend to just load up on information in short blasts, let it fester and then go back for more. Then sleep on it and time after time I generally find the solution, with a clear head.

But I also do believe that time-sensitive problems can also pull the best solutions because I don't have the time to over-think which tends to destroy ideas for me.

Catholic monastic orders aren't going to accept parents unless they can demonstrate they've already performed their religious duties to children. My guess would be the children were okay with it, and she had to show the order. Given her previous occupation, I doubt her children were left materially wanting
Not WebKit, KHTML. ;)
Ah yeah, I worked at a place that had a clearly-communicated "sink or swim" approach. The stress level was pretty high the entire time I worked there. The stressfulness of the environment was exacerbated by them letting people go without either a) clearly communicating where people were falling short, or b) providing any resources whatsoever to help people grow/improve. The employee handbook they provided to staff was a 1-page PDF that said "DO IT". I'm not joking nor exaggerating - this was sent out after staff asked for any sort of employee handbook because they kept getting reprimanded for things they didn't know were expectations/rules.

Not only does it make all the difference when you actually support your employees, it's also the law in many regions. Needless to say, I am always extremely appreciative of employers that support their team and help them grow.
This was my first thought as well. I wonder if what they refer to as the control plane[0] could be a DHT that contains keys instead. But as I thought more, I wonder what benefit a VPN-based fabric for P2P would have over protocol/application-level encrypted content. Granted the NAT busting features can help on their own, but otherwise I struggle to see the benefit assuming the protocol has encryption and P2P built in (I am probably just missing something).

I've worked in organizations that were from ~20% remote to ~90% remote (for the teams I worked with), and while I've never been the boss - never had more than a couple of people reporting to me - I observed that somehow the bosses' work was getting done, and the organization has not descended into chaos any more than usual. I have to conclude from that that there are ways to run a remote engineering org, with results no worse than for a meatspace-local one. Maybe you're just about to discover them.

A couple of years ago my local VW dealer we’re giving out free OBD Bluetooth adapters to Golf owners.

All you had to do was install VW’s app and let them have all the real time data from your car.

I said, no thanks.

VW don’t strike me as a company committed to either security or privacy (and neither do any other car manufacturers I can think of).

This was exactly the kind of breach I had in mind back then.
> I would be pretty upset at my mom if she did that, and I can’t imagine doing that to my kids.

Are you or your kids Catholic? I mean... some parents would be upset if their children decided to become vowed celibates, but if you're Catholic, and all your children decided to do this, you may be able to be happy. I am honestly shocked here that Hacker News is responding to this happening as if it is taking place in secular society, when the entire family seems religious.
Just because something was commonly accepted at one time does not mean it cannot seem bizarre in retrospect.

Because she could leave if she wanted to? Nuns leave somewhat frequently (so do priests). No one is stopping them.

The idea of giving all your stuff away to follow God is something people choose willingly.
What's the difference between a "photo" and a "photograph"?
Right? I know a couple people who have made a 3-day work week a requirement for them to take a role. It makes the job hunt a bit harder, but all I've heard back is "it's 100% worth it" in terms of pursuing this and holding your ground on it.
Ditto all of the above. The book doesn't ask anybody to take all the rules and apply them daily at an extreme. It doesn't ask the reader to remove their free thought. It's more "think about these things as you go through life" and you'll inevitably achieve more power.
Why hasn't the mindframe changed with time?

It is clearly imperialism pure and simple. The US uses its financial stronghold on internet companies to essentially dictate what is allowed or not in public discuss. You don't need to be very smart to see that Google, FB, Twitter are bound to US norms and regulations (and its surveillance state) and give very little thought to what other countries need/want. If you think this is normal, just think again.
This is absolutely true in the USA. Frito Lay has done this for years, paying supermarkets for more and more shelf space, while the smaller, regional competitors were left with less and less room to sell.

This happened to my father in the 1980s when he owned a distributorship for a regional potato chip company here in the Midwest United States.

There’s an open source project called headscale (not written by or officially supported by tailscale’s team, but we like it) which you can point tailscale’s clients at. Then your whole system is open source. You can also avoid using a central IdP that way, if that’s what you want. (I strongly recommend caution about that, if you want good security. I know it’s not popular to say so on HN, but most people running their own IdP will do it less securely than one of the big providers. It’s a very hard job, akin to running a root CA.)
They're not heavily exposed to that in Pakistan. That stuff is regulated, controlled, and locked down.
A nun won't be excommunicated for leaving the convent or shunned. Nor would a priest. You'd be surprised how many laicized priests there are around, some of whom are even married. Or how many ex-nuns there are. My principal at my Catholic elementary school was an ex-nun -- incredibly strict and orthodox Catholic as well. No secret was made of her history. She left the convent when she didn't think it was helping her. Still kept her vow of celibacy, although she was technically dispensed of it, and could have married if she had wanted to.

Not sure if 5 years ago it was much different, but I've been using it for ~3 years and the process is trivial. Setup your account, install client, join your network, click "auth" on the website by the new client. It just works.
