Maybe the question to ask is how much of this is to the benefit of the end user versus building ever more sophisticated adtech.

> which has bypassed normal treatment approval processes (the covid vaccines only have FDA emergency use authorisation, and have not yet passed the requirements for full FDA approval, requirements which are strict for a reason),

FDA approvals are largely based on the ability to provide reliable test cases. You literally have the largest test case known to human history. No amount additional FDA testing is going to make that change.

> to prevent a disease that for many people has less than a 1/100,000 to 1/1,000,000 fatality rate

This figure is meaningless. We have a steady history of "excess deaths" and can predict what annual death rates are on average on a yearly basis. This number jumped significantly even with mask mandates, lockdowns, etc over the last 18 months:

Reading hn and other tech related information is working - increasing your depth and breadth. It’s just not direct work. It’s good for you and your employer for you to spend time with indirect work, with related and unrelated general topics.
Acquire is awesome! some friends and I stumbled across it while studying game design at school and we played the crap out of it. I've been meaning to pick up a copy for myself, thanks for reminding me!

E: do you know if the Hasbro version (newer, with far uglier box) has any rule changes compared to the WotC (/Avalon Hill) original?
It's certainly not uncommon.

But: Turning it back to you: how is that working out for you? The title of your post — "feeling guilty" — may be telling you something. Either do it and enjoy it or don't.

You can be a genius "slacker". If that's fulfilling for you, great. Otherwise, focus on what you want to be getting out of the situation and not on the guilt.
It's traffic attribution; Brave showed the affiliate option to users via a pre-search UI panel in the browser (screenshot: https://brave.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/image3.png). Users could then decide to use the top suggested result, or not. The mistake here was matching on fully-qualified URLs, as opposed to search-input exclusively (the intended behavior). You can read more about it here: https://brave.com/referral-codes-in-suggested-sites/. No element of this is malicious.

As for what others do, traffic attribution is common. Open Firefox and perform a search from the address bar. Long before you press Enter, Firefox has already sent keystrokes off to Google.com (assuming you haven't changed your default search engine), along with a tag on the URL identifying Firefox as the source of the traffic.

Running my own Linux server. Well.

This was early aughts, trying to set up Puppet to run OpenLDAP + Kerberos + samba (+ldap integration) + mail + webserver... learned a ton. I think I still have that hard drive in an ammo case around here somewhere. ;) Never did get OpenLDAP + Kerberos going again, but I keep thinking, someday, again. Slightly different next time.

But in general, that pursuit of knowing how things work, of giving myself a real experience with computers, going in & rolling up my sleeves... I was already a bit of a programmer, but chasing my desire to know & to see & to learn into operations & running systems has made such a difference, marks me apart from so many of my programmer peers & has been a lifelong gratifying way to build & grow & see & experience.
A likely monetization by Brave will be prioritizing search results for verified content creators within the BAT token ecosystem (a la Twitter check-mark).
Well, the difference is that the US is openly addressing them while China is openly denying any wrong doing.
I don't think what you call "slacking around" is actually bad. You are keeping abreast and learning new things from relevant sites. That's a big part of your job and a tremendous value to you and your employer.
Yeah that's what I mean. This is the case for both commercial software (eg Q-Chem) and free software.

This is not to say that the boot time is always a problem, there are plenty of applications in which it doesn't matter at all (as you point out). However that's not always the case (by a long shot) which is why tools like GNU Parallel and snakemake exist.
Do you believe that Google doesn't engage in censoring search results? Do you know that YouTube was taking down the video of said incident yesterday and continues to do so today? https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2021/02/09/google-quietly-esc...
So, to decrypt this:

The author used Wren as an example/reference on how to build a programming language, but built something unrelated to it.

Correct?
The reason everybody was scrambling for NATO membership was the threat of being taken over by USSR. The reason USSR was taking over neighbouring countries was, among other benefits, mainly to create a buffer zone so that in case of attack Russia's "heart", i.e. Moscow, St Petersburg, etc, would be more protected.

Now with the coming of ICBMs, jets, and especially nuclear weapons it is no longer as vital for Russia to have these buffer zones. America on the other hand keeps purporting this outdated myth of scary Russia despite Russia barely even being a threat anymore so that it can keep members of NATO as effectively vassal states. This way it can control them - "you do as I say, or scary Russia will come and take you".

Having American military bases and American influence around its border will only increase tensions between Russia and their neighbouring countries. That is precisely the reason Finland hasn't joined NATO and they and Russia have been getting along fine. Russian troops haven't rolled into Helsinki as of yet.

It should also be noted that Russia's claim to join NATO was rejected in 1954, and Putin has stated that he has suggested Russia joining NATO to Clinton and was again rejected. Now I can see how USSR during Cold War would be rejected, but why was post-USSR crumbling and then Western-friendly Russia rejected? I'll suggest that it was because US would then lose its favourite boogeyman.
I should have specified countries I guess. Austria, Germany and Netherlands for sure. Others I'm told but have not directly experienced it.
DuckDuckGo allows you to do a Google search by prepending "!g" to any query. So usually I do that for the last 5% of queries that DDG fails on.
I like the idea that it is a slow charge buildup from galactic ambient high energy rays.

These would cause a very slow charge build up, and the piezo electric effect of the earth would come into play. E.g. a very slow quartz crystal clock cycle.
Yeah, roughly this. It's only a matter of time before someone gets a signature verification error, then sees the public key here and adds it to their apt policy to get past the error.
The problem that I see with some of the HN crowd and that becomes obvious when e.g. compared to lobste.rs is that HN has become quite political and non-technical. To see the difference, just regularly visit both HN and lobste.rs once a day and compare the highest ranking links: HN is mostly politics wrt tech, lobste.rs is tech/hacking.

I tend to still post my project here on HN as I get tons of feedback and since HN's traffic is just enormous. Also I just don't have a lobste.rs account lol. On HN, I have my email ready for people to send me stuff. I get a fair amount of freelance offers. But I have to say that most of my HN usage is pretty discouraging.

I'm a self-employed freelancer and I try to work on what I find fun and allows me to code as much as I can. I do it because I enjoy it. However, often when I post to HN, I get a default treatment I honestly don't think I deserve. HN hates blockchain and HN hates so much other things for seemingly irrational reasons that I carry no guilt for and I cannot comprehend why there's so much hate.

Sure, I act in self-interest (e.g. by sharing my project or a blog article) so I expect a certain amount of scrutiny. But at least in my personal experience the negative feedback in comments overwhelms the positive and so using HN to talk about side projects has become super discouraging.

It's quite ironic, considering that it's probably ycombinator's goal to seed a community of people brave enough to build what they deem useful and valuable so that more investment opportunities arise.

Since months, I've now tried to seek communities that truly appreciate someone taking both a financial and reputational risk to build their side project publicly. I've not been too successful yet, unfortunately. If I could, I'd leave HN behind.

If anyone has communities I could fit in, please let me know. Also, invite me to lobste.rs pls thx.
Edit: Try now, fix is out.

we are working on pushing a fix out shortly. Stay tuned.
The original specifications generally include "secure"... which you cannot operate it within without sacrificing other parts of the original spec.

The problem isn't that they made the patch, it's that they made a defective part in the first place. The patch just fails to cure the fact that they made a defective part.
Companies aren’t allowed to keep that data in the EU. I thought California had something similar to GDPR? In any case, it’s the minimum amount of information required for the task, and it’s at least (hopefully) for a limited time.

Low-code also applies to the day to day management of web content. It used to fall to the 'webmaster', who needed to know HTML/CSS, maybe multiple scripting languages, cybersecurity practices, etc.

Now you can hire content writers with experience in using CMS systems and leave the security/infrastructure part of it to developers.
And is there any remote-friendly company anywhere which hires juniors in Elixir?
'Poorly Made in China' is a great book on this matter: https://www.amazon.com/Poorly-Made-China-Insiders-Production...
Sure, look at any low-code platform that has an ISV partner program. You'll find plenty of success stories. My company even started that way, and ended up growing over 15 years and getting bought out before we even looked at going full-stack for our products. We're just shy of 20 years since our initial launch, and just now finally coding at our first full-stack version.

To be fair, we did start adding custom code after the first few years, but we went a really long way before losing the last of the low-code platform.
> From the feedback I got, I wasn't much more productive working more hours

I've had this feedback too and I feel like it is likely not true. Really what it is is that your managers aren't paying much attention to your output and have sort of written you off for promotions, raises, etc.

This was feedback I got a couple of months after I had been working my ass off trying to impress management and then a couple of weeks before getting fired. C'est la vie.
You're probably in a state with "at will" employment so there's nothing stopping your employer from firing you for any reason short of discrimination or retaliation. If they haven't fired you or even so much as given you a warning, then you are clearly satisfying your end of the agreement, by definition. (You don't even have the insight to make this determination, so you have to go by their actions)

That five hours a day of paid time off is the profit you earn for doing a good job. It is up to you to efficiently reallocate those resources as demanded by CAPITALISM because the company is unable to.
Yeah, I meant later on, when the jet engine is actually taking off.
Well generally race-based insults have a far greater emotional impact. The words themselves have to arise from somewhere, and usually it will be from somewhere or something or somewhen very meaningful for the race being insulted
Skylines is absolutely a lot better, but the traffic system is weird and tedious. Especially managing stuff like trash and dead bodies. I'd end up following a single vehicle around to see what the bottleneck was, multiply that x100 for a huge city and it quickly sapped the fun.
The first time we had a VOIP system going into a new building in the mid 2000's I went into one of the closets and just disconnected one of the pairs of a fiber pair.

The IP redundancy didn't work :p I forget what the excuse was; my position is stuff happens and when I break random connections in redundant PBX systems they still work. Ugh.

Yes I agree if it's impacting life so much then it's best to follow the doctor's recommendations, that's why I wanted to be a bit careful with my comment to not sound dismissive to those who genuinely need help

> You made your comment very confusing so I was confused. Thanks for clarifying, but it's still very confusing so don't go accusing me of having any "beef" with anyone. Just make sure your comments are easier to understand.

No it really wasn't confusing. Perhaps English isn't your native language, nowhere did I mention meat, unless you define a mollusc as meat (some vegetarians do choose not to eat them). I think you just wanted an argument on the internet which you'll find I don't do
That's a misleading way to frame it; Brave distributed BAT tokens to its users at the time (this was in 2018). We then asked those users to give (or "mark") those tokens to their favorite content creators. Some gave them to verified creators (who were shown with a check-mark, similar to Twitter), while others gave them to unverified creators (who had no distinguishing marks, similar again to Twitter). When the creator was unverified, the BAT (which Brave gave to the user) was deposited into a settlement wallet, waiting to be claimed (similar to how PayPal lets you email money to others). Needless to say, there were may naive UI/UX components in the product and process, and the community feedback that we acted upon (quickly, within a couple days) was phenomenal.

There are tons of hurdles. For example, many major websites will block you if you are not a crawler owned by a few companies. They have to be in Google’s index to survive, but that doesn’t mean they allow everyone else to copy their content.

This is one to look out for, I've been using this for about a week, and the search results have been really good, empirically they feel a bit better than DuckDuckGo.
If this stays this good over time and ends up having the same acceptable amount of text ads as DDG in order to be sustainable I might switch to it for good.

Recommendations for building keyboard accessible text editors
I've since clarified my comment, I meant if Chrome inserted affiliate links, not Google (search).

For chrome doing it, the same applies to Brave as those people would have visited binance.us regardless of if Brave inserted their referral code link there.
I was and sort of still continue to be a mental wreck because of isolation / life stuff that changed because of covid. We were all locked in a room for basically a year, let's all just think about that for a second.

Yes, I currently for the lack of a better definition coast at my job. I work maybe 20hrs a week and get paid the full degree, increased hours a bit to still get a raise after my last review.

This is okay to heal and get back to normal, but will undoubtably stagnate your motivation, mental health and career advancement long-term.

I'm probably going to leave this current job (since perception of my velocity is now set in stone) take a 2-3 weeks off and then start interviewing for a job with better pay.

The way I see it, I'm just gaming the system to maximize my efficiency with a large bias for recovering my mental health. This is why companies are scared of work from home long term ;)
Note that the survey was about users' perception of fairness, not the actual fairness or about outcomes for the forum.

> Participants were exposed to a social media post that contained either hate speech or profanity. Then they were exposed to a post from a moderator — either a human or an algorithm — that deleted the initial post because it was offensive. This message either explained specifically why the post was deleted, gave a general sense of why it was deleted with a clickable link to community guidelines for the site, or offered no explanation. Afterward, participants answered questions about how fair or legitimate the deletion was and how transparent or trustworthy the moderator was.

> In all countries, survey participants thought that removing hate speech was more fair and legitimate than removing profanity, and found the moderators who did so and offered a detailed explanation of why to be more transparent.

I think it's hilarious that HN needs such a disclaimer.

So what you are saying is we should move to communism and let members of federal reserve control people like slaves by printing money and handing it to their buddies?

How come as a business owner I never received a dime of those printed out money?

Entire economy is a huge scam just to let richest people live like kings at the expense of billions of humans.

At least bitcoin is a good alternative against institutional corruption going on at the highest levels of the government.

It is very common for websites to want to include some content from a different site, with a robust security boundary between them. Iframes have issues because security boundaries are hard.

A site that does not want to allow any iframes can already ban them with CSP.
Only gave it a fast look at technical designs and it seems it is still not tracking proof since QR code has:
"The person's initials and birth month/day."

This should be enough to create a pretty much unique profile ID especially for countries like Netherlands with small population.
I'm definitely not in the same boat as the OP (trying to get away with doing the minimum), but because I hate to be the long pole on a project, I always try to get my pieces done well in advance of when they're required. As I work primarily on infra, I can usually manage to pull this off.

What this means is that often when crunch time hits, I've got excess capacity I can use to help "row the boat" (or maybe bail out water from leaks?). Excess capacity is extremely valuable as lots of folks are really bad at time estimation, so having some more senior "floaters" around can really help get projects completed.

Excess capacity is also useful for longer-term efforts. You need at least a few folks who can get out of the low-level crunch mindset and figure out what needs to be done for sustainability of efforts, or else you just end up in mega-crunch forever.
They already do, at least partially. Adding !g to the end of a search redirects to google.

Unlimited PTO means they don’t have to pay out anything. It’s effectively 0 on the balance sheet.
In 2017 - 2018 I’ve been dealing with a major burnout. At first I ignored the symptoms and just kept on pushing, which worsened it eventually to a point, where I thought I would never come back from. So please consider some of my advice.

Listen. To. Your. Body. If you are financially stable enough, take an immediate break, go on vacation, focus on your relationships, friends and other hobbies you have neglected in favour for your job.

If you are not financially enough, talk to your employer, explain yourself and negotiate a reasonable solution.

Once you have distanced yourself from your profession, try out other things as well, it might show you that you have a different calling, or you’ll re-discover the appreciation for your old profession.

> I know this is common in our field and I feel a bit stupid/guilty for it happening to me so soon in my career.

Lastly, do not feel ashamed and guilty, everyone has their limits, discovering them before it’s to late is actually a strength! Talk to a therapist, to get some emotional support and possibly learn ways to deal with future ones - once you had one, you are more prone to it.
Yeah, and they responded to it by launching WebTV and Windows Mobile. At least the latter became something of a market standard, although firmly in 3rd/4th place behind Nokia, BlackBerry and Palm.
