Well, I like the extremity of your point, its instructive. However, I think challenging the majority usually comes with more baggage than just volunteering better ideas.

I think being the my-ideas-are-better-than-yours guy, is having a better perspective that leads to conceptualising the whole problem differently. It can make everyone else feel inferior in a deep way. Being that guy is also hella frustrating, because doing things worse than they need to be done is frustrating. So you end up pissed at your colleagues or just thinking less of them. They pick up on it. Distance starts to grow. You end up in some little cliche in the office. Distance grows more. You end up being even more challenging. Distance grows more. And so on.

It just has a whole human process around it. Its rarely about a trick or two here or there.
I'd bet that at least 25% of people always want to leave. Many if not most people aren't happy with their jobs and that's why their customer service is horrible.

Like you said, people want to, but that doesn't mean they will. Most people are broke as a joke, even many that make 6 figures.

People working from home have become really comfortable with not working. I know several people that do very little at home compared to what they did at the office. One of my friends works at UCLA (not as a teacher and not in the hospital) and she misses large conference calls and does maybe 3 hours of work a day at most when she used to do 8. She brags about going hiking and doing other things instead of working. I understand this is not the case with most people, but almost no one works nearly as hard from home.

They won't quit. Its all BS. If they are stupid enough to do so, they'll enjoy competing with hundreds if not thousands of people for a single job once people are forced off of unemployment.
You've provided them with a username, under which you post, comment and view content. This is enough to identify you as an entity in the system and what it is you're doing. If what you're doing, based on heuristics and what you publish is having a bad effect on "the network", you can be blocked/stopped/warned.

I'm saying HN do anything of this, but I doubt they only look at your IP when you're interacting with the service.
QA very probably caught it, did a refresh (thinking that it's a problem with their test setup, as it is frequently the case) and then went about testing.
You must be a journalist because anyone else who is paying attention does not believe for one second that the average modern journalist is presenting all sides of a story, much less properly corroborating them.
There are a number of Emacs packages which provide ripgrep integration in emacs. It makes for a nice combination of tools.
There's no such thing as pure anything. That doesn't mean we shouldn't strive towards the ideal.

Or to put another way, just because nobody is 100% a saint all the time, doesn't make being an asshole ok.
And yet other websites (ex HN, Stack Exchange) manage to combat such spam without ID.

Anyone who thinks this isn't happening in every public communication channel is hopelessly naive.

Pretty normal accident rates are found worldwide for modern HSR construction that doesn't take two decades to build a single line like CA HSR. Look at what China or Spain can build in that time span for less money.
Without having watched all of the CNN "leak" linked below, I'd like to point out two things that will color my viewing of it:

1 - Project Veritas has a history of misleading / baiting subjects into saying things that sound bad, and of taking pieces of conversation out of context.

2 - A "technical director" in television isn't an editorial role, nor is it very high ranking. The job of a technical director is to physically operate things like the video switcher to choose which camera is on screen or to put up a lower third; their job typically would not be to decide who to interview, what to ask in an interview, direct the on screen talent, etc.

I am sure CNN, like most workplaces, has employees with varied opinions and political views. Seeing any one of those employees statements as evidence of the overall views of the company is kind of ridiculous.
Sure. Tools like that have been around since the ‘70s. They have their uses — building forms and reports point-and-click. But the limited scope and inevitable low ceiling of capabilities means they did not spell the end of programmers. Instead they expand the market because the non-programmers will need help when they outgrow their tools, or even sooner when they can’t figure out a JOIN or GROUP BY or how to handle record locks.
A while ago I switched my main rendeeing machine to linux because blender rendered roughly 10% faster on it back then.

This is equivalent to saving ~16 hours when you have a week of rendertime.
Are you seriously Internet Archiving me right now. Okay, where do I start…

One, Discord is still primarily used by underage people.

Two, most Discord guilds are not public, this was a case of malicious bots. If you install an app on your phone, is your expectation automatically that it will skirt all App Store rules and dump the contents of your phone on the internet? I hate people that obsessively archive everything, but even I can see the case for IRC being expected to be public. Especially without SSL enforcement on a channel. Discord does not work like that at all. You are advocating for a treasure trove for the likes of Kiwifarms. (Which is exactly how dis.cool ended up being used, as a stalking tool)

Three, the people who say “every litte piece of info on the internet becomes part of the public record, be careful” are also the ones doing the archiving. Nobody else cares enough. Stop doing it. Not everything is worth preserving only because you are a data hoarder. I’m happy you think you’re building the library of alexandria, just make sure it’s not built out of piles of shit and PII.

If it was technically feasible to permanently record every public place outside the internet and make the recordings available to everyone, would you be in favor of that too? Just because the internet makes that technically feasible doesn't mean it's a good idea.
64K pages, actually. Also, POWER9 and aarch64 are perfectly capable of running with 4K pages, but not everything does. My desktop POWER9 with Fedora is a 64K page system, but Void PPC runs the same hardware with a 4K page.
I switched to Journey for quite some time now. Mostly because it is way cheaper, and also has a windows application.

In addition it allows to export all entries (docx & pdf) and it can import from Day One.

The user experience is mediocre though, and there is no e2e encryption!

Ehhhhh I'll give them a pass on this. Almost nobody is using it because browser support was never that great and it's being deprecated.

We should focus on reducing browser feature creep. There's hundreds of features and most of them are barely used or legacy
As I asked before about this one, does anyone know how this compares to ZeroTrust or Tailscale?

The 5 is a disaster of a freeway. It sees such an amazing amount of traffic and I feel like the state honestly has no idea what to do about it as it gets worse and worse each year with more commuters and increased trucking traffic, since freight rail is evidently at capacity in California. I have hit gridlock on that freeway at 10pm dozens and dozens of times. The entire way from LA to SD is marked by death, with scrape marks on every single barrier pretty much continuously over hundreds of miles, and tire marks of cars careening in a spin across all the lanes into a wall.
I see Excel and PowerApps everywhere across our customers.
This approach is much more expensive in the U.K. at least - I’ve done these sums for retailers (I’m a logistics consultant who specialises in e-commerce and grocery) and it’s hard to make a distribution centre cost competitive if you have an established store estate that you don’t want to get rid of.

In short, a distribution centre gives you:

* improved pick efficiency (depending on the level of automation), offset somewhat by maintenance costs and the cost of capital.

* increased delivery/transport costs (stores are generally closer to the customer than the cross dock point / outbase, vehicles are already going to the store for the main delivery)

\ flowing more product through existing retail points reduces waste (expiring products).

* increased property cost (you have to pay for a distribution centre at c£9 per square foot incl rates etc, while in retail the space is more expensive but you are already* renting it).

The one thing a fulfilment centre does give you is better service though. You can hold more range, better track dates/batches so you can give your customers the expiry dates on the website and increase availability.

So the honest answer is that delivery from a central point isn’t a slam dunk, and can definitely work but probably won’t be cheaper.

Yup, that's what it was intended to look like and where the name comes from.

I highly recommend picking something spiritual or philosophical. This doesn't have to be meditation or the Quran. It could be an Asimov book.

I like to pop into the MasterClass app and listen in on a class on advertising or music production. Things that I will never be good at, but often come out with some different way to view the world.

Philosophy is where spirit, drive, and purpose comes from. It's what helps you deal with stress and anxiety. Philosophy is a bit too heavy to deal with in the day, but nights are great.

If you want something both light-hearted and heavy, try https://existentialcomics.com/
Great idea. Joplin is a really good note taking app, open source, free and you can easily sync it via webdav.

It's not a journaling app per se, but you could use it for that.

The mobile apps are not perfect yet though.
It's not like the barrier to learning basic Python is that high. Or Excel macros.
Yeah protocol-based fuzzing is fun with afl(++), especially with the recent strides in grammar-based fuzzing. The afl++ is doing amazing work.
Well anything can happen. Approaching the end of my career after 40 years programming, I’ve heard for decades (no exaggeration) how low code/no code tools would make me obsolete. For the last decade or two I’ve also heard that AI would be taking my job any day now. I don’t hold my breath. I’ll be writing code until I stop, and I predict that in ten years businesses will have more work for skilled programmers, not less.

These low code/no code tools aren’t useless, but the people who are most likely to buy them are not likely to put in the 5+ years to learn more about programming. If they do they will want to move beyond the low/no code stuff. If they don’t they will be stuck writing macros to automate their business processes, which eventually means the business is constrained by the low/no code tools.
I didn’t catch anything in the piece about development that could be a revenue-producing product. Rather, sounded like internal apps that might have been done in Excel or Access plus some VBA goodness back in the day.

Alex Jones's biggest sin is he's boring. He repeats himself over and over again. You could listen to him for 30 minutes and then tune in 12 months later and it's the same stuff, whatever you make of it. Art Bell was a conspiracy theory guy back in the day on late night radio, but he was damned interesting and talked to all kinds of random interesting weirdos. Many of them not that credible, but at least interesting. Not to sound old and cranky, but back in my day, when you heard someone interviewed, it was up to the person listening to evaluate their credibility and not to be protected in a little bubble because one was assumed to be too easily influenced to listen to the unvetted.

Podcasts are by no means "The Truth", but at least they are not on the mainstream narrative script and they often don't have a purely political focus. As long as they aren't solely discussing the mainstream news narrative or reacting to it, they can be very interesting. I think Bret Weinstein can be pretty interesting as far as media criticism goes. The Other Life podcast[1] is an example of a podcast that's very disconnected from the mainstream narratives and feels like I'm sitting in a cafe in the 90s drinking coffee with a bunch of intellectual weirdos. Maybe not your cup of tea, or coffee, but it's better than listening to the mainstream news and filling myself with that garbage.

> The purpose of currency is not to retain long term value.

That's the definition of gold.
I don't think the difference is that large, but there is some. I haven't tried myself, but would be interesting to test it against each other.

Reddit is just too far gone now. If you pay attention to the front page, different celebrities will be plastered over it at different times, usually coinciding with some new release.

The politics subreddit is an absolute abomination of one sided debate and everything else is shut down.

World news is basically America bad everywhere else good (but especially Canada and Scandinavia).

Trump was hitler.

Some small subreddits are useful but it’s exceptionally hard not to be sucked in to the rest of it, by design.
> Every poll of Americans and religions shows Christianity as by far the most popular choice. There is simply no way to square your idea that nonreligious is the default when over 70% of Americans identify as Christian.[0]

Ask HN: Is the stock market one of the stupidest things we created as a society?
Serious question. I’ve been trying to wrap my head around it but can’t seem to make sense of it.
So, what is it? What does it do? What are the other programs/systems in the same space, and why is this one “better”?
You're right. Fuck I'm old
With low budget operations there is at least the possibility of objectivity. When there is a bunch of money involved there is not. And that’s not my opinion, it’s the opinion and words of the technical director of CNN.

While I never ran the numbers, that was my conclusion as well. Cost wise, use your existing retail infrastructure. It is easier so, to set up a separate fulfillment flow for home deliveries. It's a trade of, like always.

I haven’t used it, but unless it’s macro language is about as powerful as excel’s, and unless it has no detectable latency at all, it isn’t as good in that department at least.
The answer is "twist your heel outward". It's not really any more complicated than lifting your foot from the pedal. The direction is different, but this is why you practice unclipping for a while before going off road.
My general philosophy is that if I’m not going to take action on a piece of news, it’s fairly pointless. Keeping somewhat up to date is important as a citizen, but staying on the news treadmill is only important in as much as it effects my decision making. If I’m not going to donate money/time to dealing with an issue, keeping up to the minute on it isn’t something that is worth my attention. Similarly with companies, with few exceptions it won’t make a difference if news that an establishment doesn’t deserve my money takes an extra week or month to reach my attention. And if that sort of news isn’t going to effect my purchasing habits, once again it doesn’t matter.

As such, yeah, checking in once a week seems fine to me on most topics.

A disease kills more Americans, and you question why there was a death counter? I hope that every here reading this sees through the very thing he is trying to use to spin your mind against reality. It's damm effective too, but you can't unsee the death this disease caused first hand. You can't trick me.
My non-representative sample consisted of mine own and some very close friends and relatives. Definitely “Dad’s eyes” or “Dad’s ears”-type stuff in each. Once the massive squishing of natural birth fades away for sure (wow is that a stunning phenomenon the first time you encounter it).
How is this a secret? I don’t follow baseball. I’ve never seen a baseball game. I’ve never talked baseball with anyone. Yet I somehow always knew they did this. How? I think it was an open “secret” that was really common knowledge but is just now being openly discussed.
Looks US patent system is guilty of universities stupidization is US...

So, let's bring some history at least as I learned it. Photography was invented and in UK patented. But it wasn't patented in France so it was developed more - not stagnating (like in UK). And that nicely explains why "early masters" in photography are from France - development, development, development.

But in post WW2 US NSA was created (1957?) and all cryptography science was, at least, enforced to be self-censored. Looks like later self-censoreship was extendet for rest of the science - I bet in the name of US strategic adventage... That started killing science in US.

On top of that you have culture of nation-wide gread in winner-takes-all-and-noone-helps-him clothes. I would call it Albion 2.0 greed... Patent everything including not-realy inventions ! Greed is strong in US.

And that makes US literaly equivalent of ancient Egiptian priests that know how science of sun eclipses work but do not share and exploit it for own gain. And that makes further science development imposible (in US).

There is one more thing: economy/management/etc graduates are kind of sociopaths-by-education. Years of brainwashing
make them to extract cash from everything for themselves. Not company or enterprise! R&D or long term projects ? No way ! Bonus over all ! And thay are good at that economy/management work but it's like kids playing in someone workshop - them have no clue what's going on and what's possibly can be achieved.

Just look and HN links... Anything new and interesting (in science) comes from Europe, Japan, Australia, Brasil ! And from US comes only details for already discloused ideas and fields. That is my impression and I'm sure statistic could
[dis]prove it.
Nobody talks about the other side of the coin, it disincentivizes savers.

Little trick if you ripgrep a lot of web projects:

alias rg="rg --max-columns 200 --max-columns-preview"

So now if you hit a minified css or js file, it will truncate any match longer than 200 characters instead of flooding your screen with a million chars line.
> This is a misconception, I think

My comment was more general, as in that lots of truths and myths about bicycling stems from people talking about different speeds. So stuff like "x doesn't matter" some amateurs say, but that x actually starts to matter when the speed increases. Or the opposite, lots of marketing about how product y saves z watts making us amateurs buy it, but then that test was on a already perfect setup at high speeds we're never gonna reach.

But given most data is pointing to wider being better (or, not less effective but more comfortable) I'm wondering why pros aren't running wider.
Also lower pay for more work is a thing. Why do better when the only ones who benefit are the stakeholders ?
They have an option of not writing about something rather than doing the bare minimum for clicks. There's no reason we shouldn't expect better and criticise outlets for advertising crappy solutions without a real review. Calling out such outlets is great. Same with articles about the security VPNs give you.
It doesn't translate the octal and hexadecimal constants into decimal, but you could get a first cut at that from

It's a terrible API anyway and if it died I wouldn't shed a tear. If you need a good laugh (or more likely, a heart attack from the blood pressure rise it will induce) have a look at this blog post[1] by Mozilla justifying not using SQLite and choosing to implement the much more "elegant" IndexedDB. That post has too many examples of hubris and delusion for me to bother quoting it here, I'd just be reproducing most of it.

Then you can go to their code comparison page[2] and wonder what the hell they were on about.

> IndexedDB generally simplifies the programming model for interacting with databases, and allows for a wide number of use cases.

They can't be looking at the same code - what have they improved other than to use more Javascript?

The sooner it dies the sooner an alternative can appear… SQLite3, anyone?

No, this is a lot better than what was sold during the 70's, 80's and up to the mid 2000's. I'm aware of all of those developments, was regularly pitched about them and have evaluated the bulk of the solutions on offer, from Mimer, Mapper and other mainframe based solutions to the various offerings on PCs and UNIX platforms. Those are not to be compared to the three I mentioned above.

Agreed on the fact that these lead to market expansion and that they typically are only good up to a certain point but the examples you give are solved problems for a long time now.
As a wise investor once told me, “once it shows up in Gartner, it’s done innovating.”
The US is explicitly not getting data on US citizens from foreign spying according to this article? And the article implies that no loophole was needed for Australia to get data on Australians, there was a legal warrant for that in Australia.

So how is this the "classic Five Eyes loophole"?

Sure, there exists crypto debt and crypto equity, but the innovation with ICOs was really the “coupon economy” I think. And isn’t that still the vast majority of the usage?
I really like the language and look forward to seeing more adoption.

Is there a second implementation in another programming language?

As I understand it, it would make sense to have libraries for processing Cue data in every language.

I'm a bit concerned about Cue relying on Go too much. A data validation language should be independent of the implementation language.
