There exist recommendations engines who’s goals are solely to be useful. It’s the recommendation engines tuned to drive engagement for the purpose of advertising that are the issue. It’s a business model (enabled by tech) problem.
Most of the deaths occurred earlier in the 20th century [1]

As for the story in general ... it's not new information really. We have records of the deaths, families were notified, governments were notified, they didn't want to pay to ship the bodies so they buried them near the residences. We also knew where the graves were.

The Canadian government was aware at the time of the higher rate of deaths than normal, it was recognized as a problem, but obviously they didn't do much about it.

>Apparently what make a social club for LGBT people political or not is how "normal" it is.

In the context of outside perception it partially is. The more normalized LGBT culture is, the less bigots you have who immediately label anything LBGT as political.

Give me 5-10 years at NASA working on Hubble and I can be a domain expert useful in the room. Until then I'm a C++ expert who needs to keep his mouth shut unless asked a difficult C++ question (I wouldn't be surprised if Hubble is written in Ada and they can't possibly have a difficult C++ question).
I mostly agree with your distinction but there is a large gap between Unity and Unreal:
Godot is Gimp
Unity is Paint.net
Unreal is Photoshop

I understand mid/big studios don't want to give away a percentage to Epic (over 1mln) - which translates to "learn unity to land a job" - but for indies unlikely to reach 1 million in revenue, Unreal is basically free technology from the future.
Indeed, I was thinking of 45Drives.
It is in vogue to make judgements on the past based on current moral standards without much more context or understanding. These issues are far more complex than the popular narrative of Canada needing to atone for the genocide of native Americans, that sort of hyperbole just makes it even more difficult to create meaningful solutions. These issues are specifically pervasive because they are extremely difficult to reconcile.
>the people in that movie were WAY more loud and emotional than the real NASA engineers and operators.

There are plenty of NASA engineers and leaders who lose their cool. I’m only saying that so people don’t overly lionize them in a way that prevents them from pursuing a similar job because they feel they are somehow cut from a different cloth.
That seems like a very uncharitable characterization of the RCMP, they act as the defacto police in the maritimes and that doesn't seem to have an impact on police killings[1].

Avoiding the trap of low-knowledge, high-confidence theories
It depends on the game. SNKRX is popular right now. It's written entirely in cross-platform Lua, uses the cross-platform Love2D engine which is packaged by Linux distros already, and is open-source on GitHub. So it was very easy to make it run on Linux.

I just had to fix a crash because my distro's Love2D uses LuaJIT which only supports Lua 5.1, but the game's source contains a bit that requires Lua 5.4. But it was an easy patch (which unfortunately cannot be upstreamed because upstream doesn't want PRs).

For other games, as long as the game provides an Ubuntu version, it'd work for me. I run an Ubuntu Docker container for Steam and other "first-party software" (binary packages directly from the software manufacturer as opposed to distro repos), because when such software says "it supports Linux" it almost always means "it supports Ubuntu".
I feel like I totally understand your position, I just respectfully disagree. I’d say I’ve spent ~two minutes max in this thread, from the comfort of my house, doing about 6 other things to clear my mind between code bursts.

While it would be a slowdown for half the population - it would equally increase accessibility for the other half of the population and society would more efficiently utilize the bathroom facilities we have. If we get unisex bathroom out of trans rights I'll be happy both to see their rights respected and for society to drop an outdated prudish concept.

When I'm out at the theatre with my partner - we don't go back to our seats until both of us have taken care of business - I'd be happy to accept a bit of a personal delay in order to speed up the process overall (and I'd be even happier if an appropriate amount of urinals still existed - I don't know what that ratio is, maybe a quarter of the floor space or so, but eliminating them would likely make restrooms less pleasant for everyone).

What prevents (companies in) Western nations from creating their own fabs on their own home soil?

Obviously, labor costs are much lower elsewhere. But the massive capital expenditures involved mean that labor is a comparatively much lower % of overall costs compared to, say, spinning up a factory to make cheap shirts.

I wonder if Western nations/companies will be spurred by this chip shortage to start prioritizing their own foundries. Like energy independence, except... silicon independence.

I think it was Rachel - many years ago, for a few days, when you search "Rachel" at Google it would show a snippet from Wikipedia:

> Rachel was a Biblical figure, the favorite of Jacob's two wives, and the mother of Joseph and Benjamin, two of the twelve progenitors of the tribes of Israel ...

... along with a happy smiling face of some office worker somewhere, named Rachel, of course. It was glorious.

With the growing awareness that tech giants possess intimate knowledge of our preferences, activities, and lives - and use that influence to literally addict us to technology, sell us things, influence us politically - who the f*ck wants another fantastically wealthy corporation "woven into our lives"?

I generally recommend people avoid Land of Lisp as an introduction to CL book. It's simultainisouly too easy and too hard for most people approaching the language in that it goes way too briefly over core concepts then all of a sudden shifts gears into much more involved programming.

That being said, it's probably the best second book on CL ever. It showcases a variety of lisp techniques on some very real and fun example projects working itself all the way up to a web base game rendered via SVG which is quite fun.

These problems could be solved. However no current space craft is designed the right way. Maybe it is a trivial modification to Dragon (making it bigger...), maybe it is better to start from scratch.

Give wrong hints and watch it fall apart.
"Everyone" in a casual sense. You don't have to use Safari, iMessage and FaceTime on Apple devices, but for all intents and purposes "everyone" does because it's the default. Similar to Internet Explorer on Windows - clearly inferior product, but it took years for it to become common knowledge among the non-technical folks that you really should install a better browser.
Yes, but: the text snippet is clearly labeled "Wikipedia" and is in the same box with the photo. Combined with the Wikipedia article being the first result, this would certainly give the average person casually searching the impression that the data in the box comes from Wikipedia, which tends to be a reasonably accurate, conservative source on living persons.

The idea of mashing up the first image search result with the wikipedia snippet with no indication they are from totally unrelated sources seems pretty careless and irresponsible.
Uhhh what meatspace are you currently residing in? Xbox, Windows alone are huge indictments of what you just said. Plenty of people love the latter for example - even in the premium sector, in part because it offers a wide range of hardware compatibility and an increasingly stacked dev ecosysyem spanning .net for Windows apps on VS to web development in WSL2, etc etc.
Hell, even Surface is still around, whereas Google's Pixel laptop updates have been relatively few IIRC

I think most people interpret that definition as including API secret keys. I’d be curious to hear any alternative suggestions as I run into this fairly regularly.

Indeed, Ulysses is accessible to anyone with a well-rounded humanities education, even some particularly bookish high-school students. Sure, you might not get every single reference, but the story is plain.

Arguably the most challenging element for readers is not Joyce’s heavy erudition in drawing on the classical canon. Rather, it is some of the Irish politics in the early 20th century that will baffle most readers outside Ireland (and probably most readers inside Ireland, the colonial era being so far away now).

More like, "There is one Microsoft App Store, but apps on Amazon's Android App Store will also appear in Microsoft's App Store so you won't as a developer have to publish your Android app two places for them to show up in two places."

I would bet, for better or for worse, these Amazon Android apps will share metadata as well, so you'll see the same "Star" rating in both the Microsoft App Store and the Amazon Android App Store, but that's speculation on my part.
The mental model that causes you to need to get information from nerd essayists is probably not a good one though. You gotta try and be well read.

>because the law is supposed to be already laid our precisely

Well that's the problem right there. Some times the laws are stupid or out of date so you end up getting screwed by some unscrupulous megacorp willing to abuse said outdated laws.

Sure, the right sollution is to change the laws but you're in court right NOW and the process of changing laws is slow and the lawmakers heavily influenced by lobbyists and powerful interest groups to resist changes that affect them.

I can’t wait for webgpu and wasm to be more mature. You’ll be able to truly write a game once and release it literally everywhere. Like what Java was supposed to be. I think it’s going to be a nice little golden age for games and other software. But the last time I checked webgpu wasn’t ready yet.

I don't understand this viewpoint. Information being factually correct is a low bar. I have a lot of factually correct information that is irrelevant or misleading, or that I could state in a way that drags down the level of discourse more than it illuminates truth. Factually correct information is usually involved in tu quoque fallacies, or used to goad people into drawing false, non-sequitur conclusions. The Hacker News guidelines lay out a list of expectations for comments that go beyond factual correctness.

If someone uses factually correct information to make a comment thread worse, I can see how downvotes could be justified.
From the article:

> They [effects of global warming] are also deeply unfair: those least responsible for global warming will suffer disproportionately, the report makes clear.

There is a lot truth to this. On the other hand side, effects of global warming often hit in surprising ways at places which have contributed a lot to it. For example, global warming has the consequence of raising sea levels. But because of melting of ice in Antarctica, and gravitational effects, the rise is much larger in places like Miami, than in higher latitudes. Also, it causes heat waves and droughts, which disproportionately affect Australia (the country that exports most coal) and the US (which has the largest per-capita carbon footprint in the world).

So, from the fact that the effects of climate change are distributed unfairly, the most polluting nations can't conclude that they are any safer from its consequences.

Sure, the root of the problem is the humans.

But IMO you minimize the importance of controlling that gain. HN is full of humans, too, but here the worst/craziest stuff usually gets reduced visibility. On the big "social" platforms, they crank that crap up to 11.
>In a working market[1], the cost of a good is very close to its cost.

I would add a footnote in that comment.

[1] - A working market without large barriers to entry, information asymmetry, regulatory capture, monopolistic or oligopolistic companies, or basically anything else that deviates from the dozen or so different assumptions made in the "perfect competition" examples used in econ 101 classes that rarely exist in the real world.

God I wish they spent 6months learning to shoot. A friend of mine is a corrections deputy. Her first department ran her through a single range day where she was barely able to qualify.

Then she was sent to the state cop school, where they were to get two days of instruction, then quals.

She was worried, so I took her out for about 8 hours and taught her to shoot properly.

She went, and shot a perfect score, amd was given the marksman award for the class.

She has since gone on the embarrass most of the deputies she works with on their twice a year range days.

I am, on my best day, able to shoot at a USPSA B-class level. No grand master here. And I can shoot rings around her, all day, every day.
Would be nice to include an example of it in action :)

The barrier for a successful lawsuit is indeed very low, and based on my limited understanding, I think you will likely win when you demand that Google changes the picture on their website. They will likely also have to cover a part of your legal costs.

However if we are talking about monetary damages, those require hard proof of the damages and even then it is unlikely that they will have to pay all damages. Most lawyers I talk to usually recommend against suing for monetary damages.

the inability to gain access to anywhere near the same level of content they did before. Is a quick and simple one.
There's inevitably a lot of randomness, given the quantity of things that get posted here. That is probably enough to explain what you're seeing. Flags are mostly by users; moderators don't see most of what gets posted here. We try to review all the flags but that doesn't help if a post doesn't get flagged in the first place.

If you see a post that ought to have been moderated but hasn't been, the likeliest explanation is that we didn't see it. If it's something egregious, you can help by flagging it and/or letting us know at hn@ycombinator.com.

In any case, there's no consistency of moderation across all the posts, nor can there be. But certainly there's consistency of intent: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

It should also based on the above, apply to nearly any family dealing with poverty in these areas.

The fact is that social services does not visit and escalate issues the same levels controlling for poverty.

The correlation of poverty and being indigenous is a reflection of systemic racism and purposeful limitations on societal participation, and so they co-occur. Kids in abusive homes ofc need to be supported. Kids in poor homes need policies that allow their lives to become more stable.

The idea is sound, but the zone needs to be a bit bigger in reality. I think the moon is close enough to earth to be in the same zone (assuming antennas on "both sides", and special routing protocols to deal with day/night cycles)
